Strictly Vetted Dealers

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

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.

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.

FAQs

Traditional Chinese mother-of-pearl lacquerware is a decorative art form where iridescent shell pieces, known as nacre, are inlaid into layers of natural tree-sap lacquer applied to wood or papier-mache base structures.

Craftsmen apply multiple thin coats of processed urushiol lacquer over a wooden frame, allowing each layer to dry and polish, before cutting shell motifs and inlaying them into carved recesses or flush with the lacquer ground.

Authentic historical pieces display hand-cut shell details, fine micro-fractures known as crazing within the lacquer surface, and natural variations in the weight and jointing of the internal wood core.

A lacquered box functions well as a functional decorative accent placed atop a bedside table, coffee table book stack, or sideboard surface alongside contrasting natural textures like stone or linen.

To preserve lacquerware, keep it away from direct sunlight, central heating sources, and extreme humidity changes, cleaning gently with a soft dry cotton cloth without using water or chemical solvent polishes.
