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

Art Deco bookends typically feature stylized animal figures, geometric forms, or streamlined classical figures created during the 1920s and 1930s, often mounted on stone or marble bases.

Makers commonly utilised cast brass, bronze, or spelter for the figures, which were sometimes cold-painted, and set them onto heavy marble, alabaster, or onyx plinths.

Authentic period pieces generally exhibit substantial weight, original felt bases, hand-fitted construction between metal and stone, and natural oxidisation to the metalwork.

Position these sculptural objects on a modern office desk, a minimalist bookshelf, or a sideboard to anchor a collection of books while adding historical structure.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleansers that may strip painted details or etch stone, and preserve original patination.
