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

Dogs of Fo, also known as Foo Dogs or Chinese guardian lions, are traditional Chinese architectural ornaments that symbolically protect buildings and homes from harmful influences. Historically crafted from stone, bronze, or porcelain, they are customarily displayed in pairs.

Blanc de Chine, or Dehua porcelain, is a type of white Chinese porcelain made in Dehua in Fujian province. It is renowned for its smooth, translucent glaze and fine clay body, often exhibiting warm ivory or milk-white tones.

Authentic 18th-century pieces typically exhibit a deep glaze with subtle tonal variations, hand-carved details, and unglazed foot rims showing smooth, dense clay. Early examples frequently lack makers marks and display signs of traditional kiln firing.

Position a pair symmetrically on a console table, mantelpiece, or bookshelf to introduce balance and classical proportion. Their neutral ivory colour allows them to complement both modern minimalist spaces and traditional decor schemes.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth or a soft camel-hair brush to clean recessed carved areas. Avoid harsh chemical detergents or immersing the porcelain in water, as moisture can enter fine glaze crazing or porous bases.
