Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Japanese blue and white porcelain, known as sometsuke, developed during the early seventeenth century under the influence of imported Chinese ceramic techniques, primarily produced in regions such as Arita.

Pieces are fashioned from refined kaolin clay, painted with cobalt oxide pigment on the unglazed body, and coated with a transparent glaze prior to high-temperature kiln firing.

Authentic examples exhibit painterly hand-applied brushwork, subtle variations in glaze thickness, characteristic foot rim turning, and era-appropriate maker marks.

Position the vessel as a focal point on a credenza, console table, or mantelpiece to create visual contrast between organic cobalt patterns and neutral minimalist decor.

Dust gently using a clean, dry microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or water submersion, particularly when delicate applied relief elements are present.
