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.

Victorian watercolour portraiture from the late 19th century often featured delicate brushwork, romanticised depictions of sitters in contemporary attire, and oval mounts encased within ornate giltwood frames.

These artworks typically utilised watercolour pigments on paper or card, surrounded by gilded mounts and housed within carved timber frames decorated with moulded gesso and gold leaf.

Authentic period works often display artist signatures and dates, age-appropriate toning or foxing to paper, period mount construction, and traditional water gilding techniques on the framing.

An antique portrait can serve as a focal point positioned above a sideboard or be integrated into an eclectic gallery wall to provide historical character alongside modern furnishings.

Watercolours must be displayed away from direct light and high humidity, mounted behind protective glass, and dusted periodically using a dry, soft-bristled brush on the frame.
