Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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

An 18th-century miniature table globe is a small-scale representation of the Earth mounted on a stand, designed for private study, educational purposes, or personal display in library settings.

These globes typically feature plaster or papier-mache spheres covered with engraved paper gores, supported by a brass meridian ring and mounted on a turned hardwood stand, often made of mahogany, fruitwood, or walnut.

Authentic pieces show period-accurate cartography, hand-coloured engraved paper gores, natural surface patination, aged brass fittings with expected oxidisation, and hand-turned woodwork consistent with period manufacturing techniques.

Place the globe on a study desk, bookshelf, or mantelpiece alongside leather-bound books, antique brass instruments, or contemporary minimalist decor to create a focused, scholarly accent.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre brush, avoid direct sunlight and humidity changes to protect the printed paper gores, and never apply liquid cleaners or wax polish to the globe surface.
