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

Black Forest wood carving refers to highly detailed animal and figurative wooden sculptures produced primarily in the Brienz region of Switzerland and the Black Forest region of Germany from the mid-19th century onwards.

These pieces are traditionally carved from European hardwoods such as lime tree, walnut, and sometimes oak, often featuring glass eyes and brass or metal instrumentation inserts.

Authentic pieces typically display deep, hand-chiselled texturing representing fur, naturalistic glass inset eyes, hand-carved natural bases, and age-appropriate patination without modern synthetic finishes.

These characterful wooden sculptures add tactile warmth and organic texture when placed as statement objects on bookshelves, sideboards, or studies alongside leather-bound books and neutral palettes.

Maintain wood carvings by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, dusting gently with a soft brush, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the surface.
