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 portraiture typically features sitters depicted in formal dress, executed with realistic detail and restrained colour palettes. These artworks often reflect the social standing and character of the subject through understated backgrounds and precise costume details.

Most portraits from this period were created using oil paints applied to stretched flax canvas or wooden panels. Natural varnish layers were applied as a protective coating over the dried paint surface.

Authentic period paintings show age-consistent signs such as fine surface craquelure, natural patina, period-appropriate stretcher construction, and wear along the canvas edges.

A classic portrait creates a compelling focal point when hung above a fireplace mantle or incorporated into a curated gallery wall alongside modern art and photography.

Dust the surface gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding moisture or household detergents. Keep the painting out of direct sunlight and maintain stable indoor humidity levels to prevent pigment cracking.
