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.

The practice of mounting horns on shield-shaped wooden plaques gained widespread popularity during the Victorian and Edwardian eras as part of natural history collections and sporting pursuits display.

Traditional horn mounts typically feature organic keratin horn sheaves and partial skull bones fixed onto a solid timber plaque, often made of polished oak, mahogany, or walnut, secured with metal fasteners.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut wooden backing shields, original mounting hardware, natural wear on the skull bone, and aged patina on the keratin horn structures.

Horn mounts are frequently placed above a fireplace mantelpiece, grouped within a gallery wall of framed botanical prints, or positioned in a study or library to add architectural height and natural texture.

Dust the item regularly with a soft dry brush, keep it away from direct sunlight or damp environments, and occasionally apply specialist wood polish to the timber shield.
