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

Late Qing dynasty bronzes frequently feature relief casting depicting mythical creatures such as dragons and Qilin, paired with stylized cloud or wave borders and ornate animal-head handles.

These vessels were cast from bronze alloys containing copper, tin, and lead, then detailed with hand-chased surface decoration and natural dark patination.

Authentic pieces display distinct surface wear, traces of lost-wax casting or hand-tooling marks, natural oxidisation within recessed details, and substantial weight appropriate to cast metal.

Position them as a symmetrical pair on a mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard to introduce historical texture and sculptural grounding to a room scheme.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft cloth and avoid abrasive chemical polishes that remove aged patina; a light coat of microcrystalline wax can be applied to protect the surface.
