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. 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.

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

Japanese cloisonne, known as shippo-yaki, gained prominent international recognition during the Meiji period (18681912) due to refined enamelling techniques and intricate metal wire designs on decorative metal vessels.

Cloisonne is crafted by soldering thin metal wires, known as cloisons, onto a metal base to form designs, which are then filled with coloured enamel paste, fired, and polished flat.

Authentic 19th-century Japanese pieces display fine wirework, dense intricate patterns, polished smooth surfaces without pitting, and copper or brass bases showing age-appropriate patination.

A cloisonne bowl functions as a focal centrepiece on a dark wood sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table, adding visual weight and rich texture to contemporary or eclectic rooms.

Dust gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleaners or water immersion that can damage metal wires, and keep away from sudden thermal changes.
