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

Invented in the late 19th century, the safety stand rocking horse used a swing glider mechanism on a stationary wooden frame rather than traditional curved bow rockers to prevent injury and save floor space during the Victorian era.

Traditional rocking horses were carved from timber, finished with painted dappled coats, and fitted with genuine leather tack, metal stirrups, and natural horsehair for the mane and tail.

Authentic pieces often feature glass or hand-painted eyes, carved muscular detail along the neck and legs, leather tack fastened with metal studs, and a timber stand exhibiting natural surface wear and oxidisation.

A carved rocking horse functions as a decorative focal point when placed in a hallway, childs nursery, or adjacent to a fireplace alcove to add historical texture to a room scheme.

Keep the timber structure away from direct heat sources to prevent wood movement, gently dust the mane and tail with a soft brush, and apply specialist conditioner to the leather elements.
