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.

Champleve is a traditional enamelling technique where carved or cast troughs in metal are filled with vitreous enamel paste and fired until fused. Popularised in 19th-century France, this method produced intricate colourful patterns often combined with gilded bronze mountings.

These decorative objects are crafted primarily from cast bronze or brass, which is gilded, and decorated with opaque or translucent glass enamel in vibrant shades such as turquoise, dark blue, and red.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-finished metalwork, heavy gilding, and fine cell boundaries holding the enamel. Look for signs of precise casting alongside natural patination on ungilded areas and minor irregular glass bubbles within the enamelled surfaces.

Place these pieces on a bedroom dressing table, marble fireplace mantelpiece, or styled vanity tray to add rich historical texture. They function well alongside contemporary glass, polished stone, or unlacquered brass decor.

Dust gently with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth or dry soft-bristled brush to remove accumulation in the relief details. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, metal polish, or water submersion, as these can erode the gilt layer and compromise the enamel.
