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

Authentic pieces feature hand-painted overglaze enamels with visible brushwork, characteristic diaper borders, unglazed foot rims exposing smooth paste, and minor firing irregularities consistent with 18th-century kilns.

Small porcelain items can be displayed on glass shelving, integrated into curated bookcase arrangements, or positioned inside glazed cabinets to provide historical contrast within contemporary spaces.

Clean gently using a dry soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth to remove dust. Avoid immersion in water, harsh chemical detergents, or direct sunlight which can degrade overglaze enamel pigments.

These items were crafted from translucent kaolin porcelain paste, fired at high temperatures, and subsequently decorated overglaze using iron-red, rose-pink, green, and blue enamel pigments.

Mandarin palette porcelain refers to Chinese export ceramics produced during the Qianlong period of the Qing dynasty, recognised by overglaze enamel decoration depicting figurative scenes of human activity framed by diaper pattern borders.
