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.

A reverse glass print is an artwork created by transferring a paper print or engraving face-down onto glass, soaking away the paper backing, and applying paint or pigments to the reverse side.

Craftsmen adhered a paper mezzotint face-down onto glass using a resinous varnish, scraped away the paper until only the ink remained, and then hand-painted colours directly onto the back of the glass layer.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-blown glass with faint air bubbles or waviness, original dark wooden moulding, age-appropriate paint contraction or flaking, and contemporary copperplate lettering in the title margin.

Position the framed picture on a bookshelf alongside historic volumes, hang it in a quiet reading alcove, or integrate it into a gallery wall focused on figurative and graphic art.

Keep the picture in a temperature-stable room away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent the paint layer from flaking off the glass. Dust the front glass with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid liquid cleaners.
