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.

Popularised in the 19th century, Victorian genre watercolour painting focuses on idyllic everyday scenes, pastoral life, and narrative human interactions rendered in translucent water-based pigments.

These artworks typically consist of watercolour pigment applied to heavy paper, protected by a layered card mount and glass, and housed in an ornate carved pine or composition frame with gold leaf gilding.

Authentic pieces often feature artist signatures, period-correct paper ageing such as mild foxing, original gallery mounts, and hand-gilded swept frames with cast gesso decoration.

Position the framed painting above a sideboard, mantelpiece, or within a gallery wall alongside contemporary drawings to create a layered aesthetic.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight and high humidity to prevent fading and foxing, dust the giltwood frame gently with a dry soft brush, and avoid applying glass cleaners directly to the frame.
