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.

Chestnut baskets are specialised 18th-century serving vessels created with reticulated or pierced covers to allow steam to escape while keeping roasted chestnuts warm at the dining table.

These pieces were crafted from soft-paste porcelain, decorated with underglaze cobalt blue painting, and finished with hand-moulded floral appliques and pierced lattice work.

Authentic Dr Wall pieces typically feature a greenish or straw-coloured translucency when held to light, underglaze blue maker marks such as a open crescent or crescent with a W, and precise hand-applied floret motifs.

Position them as a symmetrical pair on a dining table, mantlepiece, or sideboard top to add historical depth and texture to contemporary or traditional schemes.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and a mild detergent with a soft brush, avoiding full immersion or harsh chemicals that could damage fragile applied flowers.
