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.

Regency period porcelain, produced circa 1811 to 1830, is recognised for elaborate gilding, rich cobalt blue underglazes, and detailed hand-painted floral panels produced by prominent English potteries.

Early nineteenth-century English tea ware was constructed from soft-paste porcelain or bone china, decorated with enamel glazes and hand-applied mercury gilding.

Authentic pieces from this era frequently feature hand-painted red or gilt pattern numbers on the base, slight irregularities in the hand decoration, and period-typical handle shapes.

Antique ceramics can be displayed within glazed cabinets, arranged on open floating shelves, or repurposed as decorative containers for small trinkets and jewellery on a dressing table.

Wash porcelain gently by hand using warm water and a mild liquid soap, avoiding abrasive pads, chemical solvents, or dishwasher exposure to protect the fragile gilding.
