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.

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

Sunderland lustre plaques are nineteenth-century earthenware wall decorations produced in North East England, characterised by metallic pink or copper splash glaze finishes and transfer-printed verses or maritime motifs.

They were crafted from moulded creamware or earthenware, fired with transfer-printed central designs, and hand-decorated with metallic oxides such as gold solution to achieve the iridescent pink or copper lustre finish.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-applied metallic glazes with natural splash variations, heavy earthenware bases, period transfer-printed typography, and integrated hanging holes moulded directly into the top edge.

Mount this plaque as part of a curated gallery wall in an entryway or hallway, grouping it alongside maritime prints, antique mirrors, or contrasting brass sconces to highlight its pink tones.

Clean gently using a dry, soft microfibre cloth to remove surface dust; avoid using liquid cleaners, immersion in water, or chemical solvents, as moisture can penetrate glaze crazing and degrade metallic coatings.
