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

Victorian mirrors often incorporate heavy ornamentation, elaborate floral or architectural motifs, and deep historical revival influences such as Rococo and Gothic revivals.

These pieces typically feature a carved wooden or moulded gesso and plaster composition base finished with gold leaf or metallic gilt paint, fitted with hand-silvered glass plates.

Authentic pieces often exhibit age-related foxing on the mirror plate, hand-mixed gesso application, traditional joinery at the frame corners, and historical backing boards secured with old cut nails or screws.

Pairing an ornate historical mirror with minimalist contemporary furnishings creates a striking focal point, using the reflective surface to amplify natural light and add textural contrast.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid using chemical cleaning agents or water on the fragile gilded surface to prevent stripping the metallic finish.
