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.

Art Deco ceramic vanity items are characterised by geometric forms, stylized figure motifs, and functional lidded designs intended for dressing tables. Popular themes during the 1920s and 1930s included flappers, dancers, and bathing belles finished in glossy glazes with understated colour palettes.

Powder boxes from this period were primarily crafted from slip-cast porcelain, earthenware, or molded glass. Ceramics were typically finished with lead glazes and hand-painted enamel details to highlight facial features and costume elements.

Authentic pieces feature period-appropriate wear along the unglazed base, age-related crazing in the glaze, and hand-applied paint details that show minor variations. Maker stamps, mould numbers, or country of origin marks (such as Foreign or Made in Germany) are frequently stamped into the ceramic underneath.

A vintage powder box can be placed on a bedroom dressing table, a bathroom vanity unit, or a display shelf to store small items such as jewellery or cotton pads. Pairing it with mirrored surfaces or simple polished brass accents complements the period aesthetic.

Clean glazed ceramic boxes using a dry, soft microfibre cloth or a slightly damp cloth with mild soapy water. Avoid submerging items with cold-painted or overglaze painted details in water, and keep them away from abrasive chemical cleaners.
