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.

During the Baroque period, cherubs or putti were frequently incorporated into ecclesiastical architecture, choir stalls, and altarpieces to convey celestial themes and dynamic emotion through sculptural wood carving.

Craftsmen predominantly worked with dense European hardwoods such as oak, walnut, and lime wood, shaping the forms using specialized chisels and gouges before applying wax, oil, or polychrome finishes.

Genuine period carvings display hand-tool gouge marks, natural timber shrinkage parallel to the grain, distinct surface oxidisation in carved crevices, and uneven wear on elevated surfaces.

A carved timber panel can be mounted above a fireplace mantelpiece, integrated into a gallery wall, or set on a stand atop a sideboard to provide architectural texture.

Remove accumulated dust gently using a soft bristle brush, maintain stable humidity to prevent wood movement, and periodically apply a light coat of clear microcrystalline wax to protect the patina.
