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.
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.
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.

Victorian watercolour artist boxes were fitted wooden cases produced in the 19th century by commercial art supply manufacturers to store watercolour cakes, ceramic mixing palettes, and painting tools for professional and amateur artists.

These boxes were typically constructed from polished hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, featuring brass lock plates, gilded trade labels on paper or silk linings, and ceramic or glass mixing trays.

Authentic pieces often feature maker marks or printed gilded trade cards inside the lid, hand-cut dovetail joinery, period brass fittings, and original ceramic mixing dishes displaying historical pigment marks.

An antique artist box can be displayed open on a desk, sideboard, or bookshelf to highlight the internal compartments and ceramic dishes, serving as a decorative focal point in a study or library.

Keep the box in a temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight to protect the wood from warping and prevent the lid print from fading, dusting gently with a soft microfibre cloth.
