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.

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

Authentic pieces often feature characteristic crazing in the glaze, makers marks or registration stamps on the underside or interior base, and hand-applied transfers or brushwork exhibiting depth in the blue pigment.

This versatile piece functions effectively as a compact side table next to a sofa, an independent display plinth for sculptures or plants, or additional seating within a living room or sunroom.

Maintain the piece by dusting with a soft cloth and cleaning gently with mild soap and water when necessary, avoiding abrasive scourers and harsh chemical solvents that might damage the historical glaze.

These pieces were typically crafted from heavy-bodied earthenware or porcelain, shaped using moulding techniques, and finished with cobalt blue glazes before undergoing high-temperature kiln firing.

Ceramic garden seats gained popularity in Europe during the 19th century, inspired by imports from East Asia. Originally designed for outdoor use in gardens and conservatories, they were frequently adopted as indoor occasional furniture and plant stands by Victorian households.
