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 late 19th and early 20th centuries, commercial establishments utilised stained and hand-painted leaded glass panels in shopfront windows to advertise goods and services, such as tobacconists and public houses.

These panels were crafted using individual pieces of coloured or textured glass held together by channelled lead cames soldered at the joints, with lettering hand-painted or acid-etched onto specific glass panes.

Authentic examples typically feature hand-drawn typography with minor painted irregularities, natural oxidisation on the lead cames, variation in glass thickness, and age-appropriate wear to the glazing putty.

These panels can be back-lit and mounted as wall art, set into internal partitions to transmit light between rooms, or displayed in window openings to catch natural sunlight.

Clean gently using distilled water on a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads that could damage original cold-painted lettering or loosen aged glazing putty.
