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.

During the 19th and early 20th centuries, natural history and taxidermy became popular for education, display, and scientific recording. Renowned London firms were commissioned to preserve game heads and exotic fauna using sophisticated mannikin techniques.

Historic taxidermy mounts typically utilised straw, tow, and plaster for internal sculpts, alongside glass eyes, original skin or hide, and solid wood shield plaques for wall fixing.

Authentic pieces often feature maker labels, paper taxidermist trade tags, glass eyes set with plaster, hand-carved oak or mahogany shields, and characteristic signs of age such as natural fur fading.

Taxidermy mounts are frequently incorporated into Gentlemans Library, Maximalist, or Rustic interiors, positioned as focal points above mantels, within gallery walls, or along staircases.

Keep specimens in a dry climate away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and moisture. Clean gently using a soft brush in the natural direction of the hair and inspect regularly for insect activity.
