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

Introduced in the 19th century, pottery cheese domes were designed to keep whole blocks or wheels of cheese at ambient temperature while protecting them from insects and dust prior to domestic refrigeration.

These serving pieces were primarily crafted from glaze-fired earthenware, stoneware, or majolica, often featuring relief-moulded decoration and hand-applied coloured glazes.

Authentic late 19th-century examples typically display heavy press-moulded earthenware bodies, ventilation holes near the base or handle, glaze crazing, and impressed or printed maker marks on the underside of the platter.

Display the cheese dome as a central feature on a kitchen island, sideboard, or dresser top to add historical texture and character to contemporary kitchen displays.

Hand wash gently using warm water and a mild detergent, avoiding prolonged soaking or automated dishwashers, as unglazed foot rims and crazed glazes readily absorb moisture.
