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.

Imari porcelain originated in the Arita region of Japan and is characterised by its signature palette of underglaze cobalt blue paired with overglaze iron red and gilt embellishments, heavily exported to Western markets during the Meiji period.

These vessels are formed from high-fired kaolin clay porcelain, painted with underglaze cobalt blue prior to an initial firing, and subsequently finished with overglaze iron-red enamels and gold leaf details in a secondary kiln firing.

Authentic late 19th-century Imari pieces display hand-painted enamel variations, unglazed foot rims showing natural clay body textures, and deep underglaze blue brushwork rather than uniform transfer printing.

Placing a symmetrical pair on a dark wood sideboard or marble mantelpiece creates a striking focal point, allowing the rust-red and blue motifs to add warmth and pattern to structured modern spaces.

Clean gently using a soft, dry lint-free cloth or camel-hair brush, avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners or water immersion that could compromise delicate overglaze enamels and original gilding.
