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

Reverse glass painting involves applying pigments and decorative motifs directly to the underside of a glass sheet, allowing the finished image to be viewed through the unpainted front surface while serving as a functional draughts or chess board.

These boards are typically constructed using clear glass panels painted with oils or enamel, supported by a wooden backing board and enclosed within a moulded timber frame such as pine, mahogany, or oak.

Authentic period examples exhibit subtle paint craquelure beneath the glass, natural oxidation on the wooden backboard, hand-cut glass edges within the framing, and age-consistent wear on the outer frame.

A framed glass games board can be mounted as graphic wall art or displayed on a tablet easel atop a sideboard, introducing traditional geometric motifs and historic texture to modern decor.

Maintain the piece by gently wiping the outer glass with a dry microfibre cloth; liquid cleaners or excessive humidity must be avoided as moisture can penetrate the frame and detach the painted backing layer.
