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.

Kakiemon porcelain originated in Japan and featured asymmetrical designs with specific overglaze enamel palettes on white porcelain, which European factories like Bow and Chelsea copied extensively during the 18th century.

Bow porcelain was manufactured using soft-paste porcelain, often incorporating bone ash to enhance thermal stability and translucency, finished with hand-applied overglaze enamels and gilding.

Authentic pieces display a translucent body when backlit, minor manufacturing imperfections such as kiln marks, and characteristic hand-painted overglaze enamel wear consistent with age.

Displaying a historic dish on a plate stand on a sideboard, mounted inside a display cabinet, or styled within a gallery wall wall introduces historical texture to contemporary spaces.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and mild soap with a non-abrasive sponge, avoiding prolonged soaking, harsh chemicals, or dishwashers that could damage overglaze enamelling and gilding.
