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

Eighteenth-century allegorical paintings frequently used classical mythology, cherubs, and personifications of the arts to represent abstract concepts such as creative inspiration, virtue, or patronage.

Artists during this period primarily used hand-ground mineral pigments bound in linseed oil, painted onto hand-woven linen canvases mounted on wooden stretcher frames.

Authentic works from this period typically exhibit natural craquelure across the paint layer, age-related oxidation of varnish, visible hand-woven canvas textures, and historical stretcher construction.

Positioning an antique classical painting above a minimalist console table or mantelpiece creates a focal point by contrasting historical depth with contemporary architectural lines.

Keep the canvas away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and direct heat sources, while using a dry brush to remove surface dust gently without applying liquid cleaners.
