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.

Eighteenth-century classical engravings were printed works on paper created using etched copper plates, often depicting Greek and Roman mythology or historical scenes. These prints made fine art accessible to classical collectors and scholars across Europe.

These pieces feature hand-printed engravings or etchings on rag paper, housed in hand-carved or moulded wooden frames finished with water gilding using gold leaf over red or yellow bole.

Authentic antique prints typically display plate marks around the image border where the metal plate pressed into the damp paper, hand-drawn detailing or hand colouring, natural age tones on the paper, and period-appropriate frame construction.

Incorporate a classic gilt framed print into a gallery wall alongside contemporary line drawings or position it above a minimalist console table to create an intriguing textural contrast.

Display the print away from direct sunlight and damp conditions to prevent paper foxing and fading, and clean the giltwood frame gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush rather than liquid cleaners.
