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.

Art Nouveau terracotta busts from the early 20th century feature organic lines, naturalistic human forms, and stylised drapery or hair. Sculptors emphasised fluid facial expressions and movement, reflecting the movements focus on nature and organic forms.

Terracotta sculptures were created by modeling clay directly or casting it in plaster molds. After drying, the piece was fired at low temperatures in a kiln, often receiving a subtle wash, slip, or cold-painted finish to enhance the natural clay tones.

Authentic pieces usually feature hand-carved finishing details, foundry stamps, sculptor signatures, or mold numbers near the base. The clay exhibits natural tonal variations and soft wear along seam lines, edges, and recessed areas.

Position a terracotta bust on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or open shelving to establish a sculptural focal point. Pairing warm earthenware tones with modern stone or dark wood creates a balanced contrast between classical art and contemporary design.

Dust the surface regularly using a dry microfibre cloth or a soft-bristled brush. Avoid water or liquid solvents, as unglazed terracotta is porous and can absorb moisture, leading to staining or surface damage.
