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.

Standing altar crosses gained widespread use during the medieval and Renaissance periods, becoming central fixtures on church altars and private domestic shrines to focus devotional contemplation.

Antique altar crosses were typically manufactured from cast brass, bronze, silver, or silver-plated white metal, often featuring detailed repousse work or cast figurative elements.

Genuine period pieces often exhibit visible casting seams, hand-chased details, soft wear on high points, maker stamps, and natural oxidisation within deep relief areas.

Incorporate the piece onto a curated mantelpiece, quiet bookshelf nook, or styled console table alongside antique leather books and natural foliage to add texture and historical contrast.

Remove surface dust with a soft, lint-free cloth, avoiding harsh chemical metal polishes that can wear down original silver plating or strip aged patina from low relief areas.
