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.
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.
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.

Famille Rose is a category of Chinese porcelain introduced during the Qing dynasty, characterized by overglaze enamel painting using an opaque rose-pink palette derived from colloidal gold.

Pieces were crafted from high-fired kaolin clay (hard-paste porcelain), glazed, and fired before skilled artisans applied detailed overglaze enamels in secondary kilns.

Authentic period examples display subtle hand-painted enamel texture, slight imperfections on unglazed foot rims, natural glaze contraction pinholes, and soft wear patterns consistent with age.

Place the plate on a display stand atop a sideboard or incorporate it into a curated wall gallery alongside contrasting artwork and modern architectural elements.

Clean gently using a soft, dry cloth or lukewarm water with mild soap, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, immersion, or abrasive materials that could erode the delicate enamel.
