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

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.

This Scottish Edwardian wall mirror dates from circa 1900 and comes from Bowman & Son of Union Street, Aberdeen. The frame exhibits a honey-coloured mahogany timber with a visible patina, an oval form, and a moulded profile housing original bevelled edge glass. The composition also incorporates an overhead hanging chain in addition to the wooden housing. Measuring 47 cm high, 38 cm wide, and 2.5 cm deep, this compact piece fits easily onto a narrow wall space. Traditional English Country House interiors suit this mirror well, particularly in spaces requiring reflective surfaces without a heavy footprint. Hallways, small bathrooms, or above a bedroom chest of drawers provide ideal locations for everyday use. The flexible hanging chain permits landscape orientation if preferred over the standard vertical alignment.

FAQs

Dating to around 1900, these mirrors typically feature simple, elegant oval frames constructed from rich mahogany, often accented with bevelled glass edges and understated moulded rims reflective of early 20th-century Scottish wood craftsmanship.

Turn-of-the-century wall mirrors were primarily constructed using solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over pine backings, paired with silvered plate glass featuring bevelled edges and solid timber backboards for protection.

Authentic period mirrors feature genuine bevelled plate glass displaying subtle age-related silver oxidisation, solid wood backboards secured with hand-cut or era-appropriate fasteners, and hand-finished timber frames exhibiting natural grain wear.

An antique oval mahogany mirror works effectively positioned above a hallway console table, mounted in a cloakroom, or integrated into a gallery wall to create reflective depth and visual warmth.

Dust the mahogany frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply natural beeswax polish along the timber grain, while cleaning the mirror glass carefully with a damp cloth without allowing moisture to touch the wooden rim.
