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

Vanity Fair caricatures were chromolithographic illustrations published in the British magazine Vanity Fair between 1868 and 1914, featuring prominent public figures, politicians, and intellectuals rendered in a distinctive satirical style.

Chromolithography involved transferring artwork onto multiple zinc or stone plates, with a separate stone used for each coloured ink application to build up a detailed, full-colour image on paper.

Original prints feature precise colour registration, period paper stock, publication dates printed at the top or bottom margins, and often bear the artists signature or monogram, such as Spy (Leslie Ward).

These historical prints suit traditional studies, hallways, or gallery walls when paired with dark wood furniture, leather seating, or contrasting minimalist frames.

Keep prints away from direct sunlight and high humidity, ensure they are mounted using acid-free materials, and utilize UV-protective glass to prevent colour fading over time.
