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

A 19th-century French arched mirror typically features a rounded upper profile, moulded timber and gesso framing, and carved decorative cresting such as acanthus leaves or shell motifs, characteristic of the Louis Philippe and Napoleon III eras.

These mirrors were constructed with solid timber frameworks, layered with a mixture of chalk and glue known as gesso, which was carved or moulded before receiving gilding or paint finishes over silvered glass panels.

Authentic period examples generally display original panelling on the reverse side, natural foxing or oxidisation within the glass plate, minor craquelure in the gesso surface, and hand-carved joinery details.

Positioning a large arched mirror above a fireplace or console table helps maximize ambient light and introduces architectural height and traditional contrast to contemporary decorative schemes.

Clean the painted gesso frame by dusting gently with a dry, soft brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaning solutions that could degrade the underlying plaster or paint layers.
