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

Nineteenth-century French arched mirrors typically feature curved upper frames, constructed with wood moulding and ornate gesso detailing. They were designed to reflect light and add architectural interest to high-ceilinged reception rooms.

These mirrors were constructed using timber frames overlaid with gesso, a mixture of binder and chalk, allowing for carved detailing. The frames were subsequently finished with paint or gilding over mirrored glass.

Authentic period mirrors often display subtle signs of age such as light oxidation on the glass plate, natural surface wear to the gesso finish, and historic timber backboards.

Large arched mirrors can be positioned as floor-leaning accent pieces in hallways or bedrooms to introduce height, light, and architectural contrast to modern schemes.

Dust the frame gently using a dry, soft brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding liquid cleaners or abrasive substances that could harm the aged gesso and paintwork.
