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

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.

This Chinese porcelain teapot and cover originates from the Kangxi period of the late 17th to early 18th century. The piece is finished in cobalt blue underglaze and white with gold leaf highlights. The faceted octagonal body displays hand-painted female figures in landscapes across the panels, while an angular spout, a curved handle, and a domed cover with a round finial complete the form. Measuring 11 cm high by 15 cm wide, the vessel functions practically as a traditional container. In a contemporary home, this item suits placement on a sideboard top to contribute an English country house style to the interior. The glazed ceramic surface shows small spots of wear and slight discolouration around the seams and joints where the handle and spout meet the body, alongside traces of gilding on the painted scenes. The domed lid fits snugly over the octagonal rim, topped by a small bulbous finial.

FAQs

Produced during the reign of Emperor Kangxi from 1662 to 1722, this porcelain features cobalt blue underglaze decoration applied to white porcelain bodies, frequently tailored for export to Western markets.

These vessels were crafted from kaolin porcelain clay, painted with mineral-based cobalt blue underglaze, coated with transparent glaze, and finished with overglaze gold enamel.

Authentic examples display multi-layered cobalt tones with defined gradations, hand-painted figurative or floral artwork, unglazed foot rims showing smooth white paste, and period-appropriate surface wear.

Position the teapot on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or within a glass display cabinet alongside minimalist decor to highlight its form and historic patterning.

Dust gently with a soft microfibre cloth and clean with lukewarm water and mild soap when necessary, avoiding abrasive materials, harsh chemicals, or soaking.
