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

An antique curved brass exterior sign is a commercial or institutional plaque created to identify premises, historically positioned near doorways or mounted onto curved architectural pillars.

These plaques were typically made from solid cast or sheet brass with incised or chemical-etched lettering, often secured to a shaped timber backing for structural stability and surface mounting.

Authentic signs feature deep, clean-cut incised lettering, hand-finished edges, original period mounting holes, and age-consistent surface wear or oxidisation rather than uniform machine stamping.

Vintage plaques can be styled as focal wall features, displayed on bookshelves alongside leather-bound volumes, or incorporated into gallery wall arrangements in hallways and studies.

Dust regularly with a dry microfiber cloth. To preserve the aged surface patina, avoid abrasive metal cleaners, or apply a light layer of microcrystalline wax to protect against environmental tarnishing.
