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.

Victorian child portraiture frequently captured themes of innocence and childhood through naturalistic tones, soft lighting, and focused figurative composition.

Artists typically executed these works using oil paint on stretched linen or cotton canvas, housed within moulded timber frames finished with ebonised lacquer or gold leaf gilding.

Authentic pieces generally display natural age-related craquelure across the paint layer, period signatures or dates, and traditional frame construction such as wooden strainers and aged backing materials.

An antique portrait can be integrated into an eclectic gallery wall alongside modern prints, or suspended individually above a minimalist console table to create visual contrast.

Display the painting away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity, dusting the frame lightly with a soft dry brush while avoiding liquid cleaners on the varnish.
