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

Florentine book stands are characterised by traditional Italian gilded and painted wood techniques, often featuring intricate scrollwork, acanthus leaf motifs, and muted polychrome finishes stemming from Renaissance craft traditions.

These pieces were typically crafted from softwoods covered in gesso, which was then decorated using gold leaf gilding, tempera paints, and punch-work engraving to create layered visual texture.

Authentic pieces feature signs of age such as natural micro-craquelure in the painted areas, soft wear showing red bole beneath the gilding, and lightweight timber construction.

Position the stand on an office desk or console table to display an open art volume, or place it on a kitchen island to hold a hardback cookbook as a functional accent.

Dust gently with a dry microfibre cloth or natural feather duster, avoiding moisture, liquid cleaners, or excessive humidity which can damage gesso and loosen gold leaf.
