Archival Detail
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.

Sculptures from this era draw inspiration from classical antiquity, showcasing refined figurative representation, smooth contours, and historicised costume details carved directly into natural stone.

Craftsmen hand-carved dense white Carrara marble using steel chisels, points, and rasps, before mounting the finished upper bust onto a separate turned circular socle.

Authentic pieces feature evidence of hand-tooling on less visible areas, natural age-related surface oxidisation, accurate anatomical proportions, and historical socle attachments.

A marble bust can be styled as a focal point atop a pedestal, positioned within a fireplace alcove, or paired with contemporary artwork on a grand console table.

Surface dust should be removed with a soft brush, while gentle washing requires distilled water and a neutral pH soap, avoiding harsh acid cleaners or abrasive tools.
