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

A netsuke is a miniature carved toggle developed during seventeenth-century Japan to secure personal items suspended from the sash of a pocketless kimono.

Craftsmen predominantly used dense hardwoods such as boxwood, cherry, and ebony, along with organic materials including ivory, bone, stag antler, and horn.

Authenticity is assessed through the presence of functional cord holes known as himotoshi, natural age patination, signs of wear consistent with use, and detailed hand-tooling.

These small tactile sculptures are best displayed inside acrylic or glass collector cases, atop stacks of art books, or arranged within a curio cabinet in a study.

Keep the wood in a stable environment away from direct sunlight, central heating sources, and excess moisture, dusting gently with a soft microfibre brush.
