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.

Pottery from the Yangshao culture Banpo phase is primarily defined by hand-built earthenware ceramic forms, often utilizing coiling techniques before firing in low-temperature kilns or open pits.

These vessels were crafted from local earthenware clay deposits, often unglazed or burnished, displaying natural earthy tones ranging from terracotta red to muted grey-brown.

Authentic pieces feature signs of hand-coiled construction, subtle asymmetrical variations in wall thickness, natural mineral patination, and wear consistent with burial or long-term preservation.

Vessels of this scale serve as striking sculptural focal points on sideboards, open shelving, or large console tables, complementing minimalist, organic, or contemporary space designs.

Porous earthenware should be kept in a climate-controlled environment away from moisture, cleaned only with a soft dry brush, and never exposed to liquid cleaners or water.
