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

During the 19th century, terracotta became a favoured medium for producing decorative animal sculptures, often placed at the entrances of country estates or within grand hallways as symbolic guardians.

These sculptures were typically press-moulded or hand-modelled using natural clay, which was then fired at high temperatures to create a durable, porous earthenware finish.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit natural weathering, subtle firing imperfections, hand-tooled details in features like collars or fur, and evidence of historic wear along the base.

Place the sculpture beside an entryway door, near a fireplace hearth, or within an indoor conservatory to add an architectural anchor and character to contemporary spaces.

Keep terracotta indoors or in a sheltered area to protect it from frost, brush away surface dust gently with a soft dry brush, and avoid applying harsh chemical cleaners.
