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

During the Edwardian era, glass display domes were used to protect and present delicate objects such as taxidermy, clockwork mechanisms, dried flowers, and pocket watches from dust and atmospheric exposure.

Traditional display domes feature mouth-blown glass with slight air bubbles or thickness variations, fitted onto a turned timber base crafted from woods such as beech, mahogany, or ebonised pine.

Authentic antique cloches often display minor irregularities, seed bubbles, or pontil marks in the glass, alongside age-consistent wear and a natural patina on the turned wooden base.

A glass dome can be styled on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or bookshelf to highlight small collectables, botanical specimens, or sculptural objects within modern or eclectic interiors.

Clean the glass exterior with a soft microfibre cloth and mild glass cleaner, ensuring liquid does not contact the wooden base, which should be dusted gently with a dry cloth.
