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

Faux taxidermy involves creating animal head mounts using synthetic fur, resin, plaster, and fabrics rather than genuine animal hides, gaining popularity in theatrical props and ethical interior decoration.

These pieces are usually constructed around a lightweight fiberglass or papier-mache core, fitted with synthetic fur, acrylic eyes, moulded resin teeth, and plastic whiskers.

Theatrical film props often feature hand-painted details, bespoke armature construction, painted resin interior mouth structures, and visible mounting fittings designed for quick set installation.

Position the head as a central focal piece above a fireplace mantelpiece, within a gallery wall, or in a Gentlemans Library setting alongside dark wood bookcases and brass accents.

Gently vacuum the synthetic mane on a low setting using a soft brush attachment, wipe resin features with a damp cloth, and avoid direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
