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

Louis Philippe mirrors typically feature a soft rectangular frame with rounded top corners, simple linear mouldings, and a gilding layer over wood and gesso, popularised during mid-19th century France.

These pieces were built using a timber frame coated with carved gesso, followed by the application of red bole clay and real gold leafing before fitting the reflective glass panel.

Authentic period examples often display timber backing boards on the reverse, minor foxing or mercury marks on the glass plate, and red bole showing through areas where the gold leaf has worn.

Position the mirror above a fireplace mantelpiece or lean it against a primary wall to maximize natural light refraction and establish visual elevation within contemporary rooms.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry bristle brush, keeping liquid cleaners away from the gesso and gold leaf to prevent moisture damage or flaking.
