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.

Meiji period bronze metalwork from late nineteenth-century Japan is noted for sophisticated casting techniques, detailed relief carving, and naturalistic motifs such as birds, flora, and aquatic life, driven by increased international export following Japans opening to the West.

Vases from this period were typically cast using the lost-wax (cire perdue) technique or sand casting, followed by hand-chiselling, engraving, and chemical patination to produce rich brown, red, or dark surface finishes.

Authentic examples display detailed hand-finishing, significant physical weight indicative of solid bronze casting, characteristic patination within recessed areas, and occasionally artist signatures or foundry marks stamped into the base.

A pair of bronze vases can be displayed symmetrically on a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard, where their dark patinated finish contrasts effectively against light-toned backgrounds or neutral walls.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, water, or chemical solvents that strip the original patina; a light application of clear microcrystalline wax can be applied and buffed to protect the metal.
