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.

Georgian portraiture during the 18th century focused primarily on capturing the likeness, social status, and attire of aristocracy and affluent citizens. Characterised by classical proportions, muted colour palettes, and detailed representation of hair and textiles, these works reflected the Neoclassical movement of the period.

Portraits from this era were typically executed using oil paints or pastels on woven linen canvas, paper, or timber panels. Frames were constructed from carved timber or composition moulding, gilded with thin sheets of gold leaf applied over a chalk gesso base.

Authentic works from this period usually feature natural paint craquelure, evidence of hand-woven canvas, and oxidised stretcher timbers. The reverse often shows age-related discolouration, historic lining, or hand-forged nails consistent with period craftsmanship.

An 18th-century portrait can be displayed as a focal point above a mantelpiece, positioned on a sideboard top, or incorporated into an eclectic gallery wall. Juxtaposing historical art alongside minimalist furniture adds depth and character to modern rooms.

Position the painting away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to prevent paint flaking and frame warping. Lightly dust the frame with a dry brush, avoiding chemical solvents, water, or abrasive cloths on delicate gold leaf finishes.
