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.

Saltglaze stoneware is a durable ceramic rendered impervious to liquids by introducing common salt into the kiln during high-temperature firing, producing a distinctive pitted orange-peel texture on the surface glaze.

These vessels were typically press-moulded or thrown using dense local clay, featuring moulded decorative motifs such as barrel staves and rivets prior to high-heat salt firing.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples display significant physical weight, characteristic surface pitting, subtle seam lines from press moulds, and dark brown or iron-rich glaze variations.

Place the vessel near a doorway or hall stand to hold umbrellas, walking canes, or tall dried floral arrangements, adding material weight and historical texture to modern interiors.

Clean the non-porous glazed surface using a soft cloth, lukewarm water, and mild detergent, avoiding harsh chemical cleansers or abrasive scourers.
