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.

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

19th-century Renaissance Revival majolica, or maiolica, revived the techniques and motifs of 16th-century Italian pottery. These pieces feature tin-glazed earthenware decorated with classical themes, istoriato narrative scenes, putti, and grotesque border scrollwork.

Majolica is crafted from earthenware clay coated with an opaque white tin glaze. Metal oxide pigments, including cobalt blue, copper green, and antimony yellow, are applied directly onto the unfired glaze before undergoing a firing process.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-painted brushwork with visible variation, stilt marks on the reverse from kiln firing, and natural crazing within the tin glaze. Maker marks or numerals incised or painted under the glaze can also assist attribution.

A large ceramic charger can be displayed on a plate stand atop a sideboard or mounted securely to create a focal point on a gallery wall. Combining historic ceramics with contemporary joinery provides textural contrast.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to clean the surface. Avoid immersing tin-glazed earthenware in water or using abrasive chemical cleaners, as moisture can penetrate existing crazing and damage the body.
