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.

The Animalier movement emerged in 19th-century France, specialising in realistic, detailed depictions of animals, particularly wildlife, horses, and dogs rendered in naturalistic poses.

Most 19th and early 20th-century bronzes were cast using the lost-wax or sand-casting method, followed by hand-chasing and mounting onto a carved stone or marble plinth.

Authentic period bronzes feature hand-tooled surface details, cold-work finishing, natural patination consistent with age, and substantial weight from solid metal casting and stone bases.

Position the figure on a dark wood desk, bookshelf, or fireplace mantelpiece alongside leather-bound volumes and natural history specimens to complement a gentlemans library aesthetic.

Dust gently with a soft microfibre cloth, apply a light coat of clear microcrystalline wax to preserve the metal patination, and avoid applying water or chemical cleaner to the marble base.
