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.

A Georgian portrait miniature is a small-scale, highly detailed painting executed during the 18th or early 19th century, typically created as an intimate personal token of affection or memory.

These miniatures were commonly painted using watercolour or gouache on thin sheets of vellum or ivory, then sealed beneath glass within gold, pinchbeck, or silver frames.

Authentic period pieces display period-accurate clothing and hairstyles, stippled or cross-hatched paint application under magnification, and original hand-forged or cast metal mounts.

Portrait miniatures can be displayed within glass cabinetry, grouped together on a gallery wall, or incorporated into fine antique jewellery collections as wearable pendant art.

Store and display the item away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent fading of the watercolour pigments or warping of the organic substrate.
