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

These stands were used during the Qing Dynasty to display decorative weapons and polearms during official processions, court gatherings, and temple rituals.

Racks were typically constructed from dense regional hardwoods, detailed with hand-carved joinery, and fitted with cast brass or bronze finials.

Authentic pieces feature traditional mortise and tenon joinery without modern fasteners, natural surface oxidisation on wood, and hand-cast metal components with minor irregularities.

It serves as a dramatic architectural focal point in large entryways, double-height reception rooms, or minimalist spaces requiring high visual impact and scale.

Maintain a stable relative humidity to prevent timber movement, dust regularly with a microfibre cloth, and refrain from using harsh polishes on original metal patinas.
