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.

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

Chinoiserie refers to a European decorative style originating in the seventeenth century that incorporates East Asian artistic motifs, including stylized pagoda landscapes, flora, fauna, and figurative scenes often rendered in gilding and lacquer.

These cabinets are typically constructed from solid timber bases, finished with multiple coats of dark lacquer or varnish, and decorated with hand-applied gold leaf, metallic pigments, and polished brass handles.

Authentic period examples demonstrate genuine hand-painted details with fine brushwork, age-appropriate surface craquelure, solid timber carcass construction, and traditional joinery rather than uniform modern prints.

Position the piece as a focal accent in a hallway, dining area, or living room, contrasting its ornate lacquer and gilt artwork against neutral walls and simplified modern furnishings.

Dust surfaces regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding commercial solvents, wax polishes, or water. Keep the item situated away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent lacquer shrinkage.
