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.

In Chinese culture and trade, cockerels symbolise punctuality, fidelity, and protection, making them popular subjects for both domestic use and export porcelain during the Qing dynasty.

These figures were hand-moulded or slip-cast from fine kaolin clay, finished with clear or coloured glazes, and fired at high temperatures, often featuring hand-painted enamel accents.

Authentic pieces generally display unglazed foot rims showing natural clay body texture, slight hand-sculpted variations, small firing vent holes near the base, and characteristic period enamel tones.

A symmetrical pair works effectively when placed flanking a central object on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard top, or arranged within a curated bookshelf display.

Dust regularly using a soft dry brush, avoiding immersion in water or abrasive chemicals that can damage delicate surface glazes or penetrate porous under-foot areas.
