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.

Censers, or koro, are traditional vessels used in Japan for burning incense during religious rituals, tea ceremonies, or home fragrance practices. Bronze censers crafted during the Edo period (16031867) feature cast relief decoration and artisanal metalworking techniques characteristic of the era.

These vessels were typically cast using lost-wax or sand-casting methods before being hand-finished with chasing chisels to sharpen relief patterns. The metal alloy frequently combined copper with tin, lead, or zinc to achieve specific weights and patina qualities.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved or hand-chased surface details, subtle asymmetry from manual casting, and natural surface wear. The patina should exhibit genuine aging, such as deep brown oxidisation or traces of verdigris, rather than a uniform modern chemical coating.

An antique bronze vessel serves as a textural accent on a sideboard, coffee table, or open shelving unit. Its dark tones and relief patterns contrast effectively against light wood surfaces, marble, or minimalist backdrops.

Dust the surface periodically using a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush to clean within the recessed scrollwork. Avoid applying liquid metal polishes, harsh chemicals, or water, as these can strip the historic patina.
