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.
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.
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.

A toilet mirror, historically referred to as a toilet glass or dressing glass, is a freestanding tabletop mirror designed in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to assist with personal grooming at a dressing table.

These mirrors were constructed predominantly from fine hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, and rosewood, featuring silvered glass plates and small turned bone, ivory, or brass knobs on the drawer fronts.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer construction, natural oxidisation on unpolished rear surfaces, and original brass brassware or turned bone fastenings holding the mirror frame.

Position the piece atop a chest of drawers, bedroom console, or hallway sideboard to create vertical proportion, reflect natural light, and introduce classic wooden texture into the scheme.

Dust the wooden framework regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish periodically along the grain, taking care to clean the glass plate separately with distilled water.
