Archival Detail
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.

French Chateau style gilt mirrors feature hand-carved timber or composition frames coated in gesso and finished with gold leaf, frequently incorporating neoclassical motifs such as acanthus leaves, scrollwork, and shell pediments.

Traditional frames are constructed from carved wood layers coated with gesso plaster, which is polished and gilded using genuine gold leaf applied with water-gilding or oil-gilding techniques.

Authentic pieces display subtle wear to the gold leaf revealing red or grey bole beneath, visible hand-carving marks, original wood backing boards, and light oxidisation on the mirrored glass.

A pair of round gilt mirrors can be hung symmetrically above a sideboard, flanking an entryway doorway, or positioned above bedside tables to balance modern spaces with warm tones and reflected light.

Gilt frames should be cleaned using only a dry, soft-bristled brush to remove dust without disturbing water-soluble gesso, while glass plates should be wiped carefully using a lightly dampened microfiber cloth kept away from the frame edges.
