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.

Neoclassical oval gilt mirrors feature symmetrical, refined forms influenced by classical antiquity, incorporating beaded trim, rosette clasps, and gilded finishes popular during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.

Traditional construction incorporates carved wood or plaster composition coated in gesso, finished with hand-applied gold leaf gilding, surrounding a silvered glass mirror plate.

Genuine period pieces typically exhibit signs of hand-carving on the reverse, natural oxidisation to the silvered mirror glass, red or grey clay bole showing through worn gold leaf, and timber backboard construction.

An oval gilt mirror acts as a focal point above a fireplace mantel, console table, or hallway sideboard, balancing modern minimalist lines with classical texture and light reflection.

Dust the gilded frame with a dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water or liquid cleansers that degrade gold leaf, while cleaning the central glass plate with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water.
