Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Rococo style mirrors feature asymmetrical compositions, intricate C-scrolls, floral motifs, shell crests, and naturalistic carved ornamentation inspired by 18th-century French designs reinterpreted during the 19th century.

Traditional 19th-century examples were crafted using timber frames built up with hand-carved gesso plaster, finished with leaf gilding or paint, and fitted with silvered glass plates.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-carved joinery, visible red or yellow bole clay beneath worn gilding, original wooden backboards, and age-appropriate oxidisation or foxing on the glass.

Positioning a grand Rococo mirror above a fireplace mantel or leaning it against a neutral accent wall creates a striking focal point that contrasts with modern minimalist furniture.

Dust the ornate carved frame lightly with a soft, dry camel-hair brush to preserve fragile gesso, avoiding liquid cleaners or abrasive cloths on the gilded surfaces.
