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.

This pair of 18th-century wall plaques displays hand-painted pastoral landscape scenes with figures in period costume, a castle by a lakeside, and a pond beneath a tree. The Georgian items incorporate enamel, copper, brass, and wood materials with a multicolour glaze and black ebonised finish. Each plaque sits within a gilt brass bezel and a moulded ebonised oval frame, showing visible splits along the timber surrounds. The dimensions measure 7 cm high, 8.5 cm wide, and 0.5 cm deep. These pieces suit placement on narrow wall spaces in an English country house interior, bringing heritage character to a study, hallway, or drawing room. They mount easily onto plaster or wood-panelled walls either together as a pair or individually to complement existing collections of antique miniatures and framed art.

FAQs

Enamel plaques from the 18th century are decorative vitreous artworks created by fusing powdered glass onto copper or metal backing plates at high temperatures, frequently hand-painted with miniature pastoral or neoclassical scenes.

These items typically feature a copper base plate coated in white enamel, decorated using metallic oxide pigments before firing, and set into brass bezels within wooden or ebonised frames.

Authentic pieces generally display fine hand-painted brushwork under magnification, counter-enamelling on the reverse side to prevent warping during firing, and age-consistent patination on the metal mounts.

Display these small-scale artworks in curated gallery wall arrangements, within narrow wall spaces, or flanking larger mirrors and architectural features to add historical narrative.

Dust carefully using a dry microfibre cloth, avoid applying liquid cleaners or abrasive chemical polishes to the enamel, and keep away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and high-vibration areas.
