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.

Quimper faience originated in Brittany, France, during the late seventeenth century, becoming renowned for hand-painted tin-glazed earthenware depicting local Breton figures and rural life.

These pieces are crafted from earthenware clay, coated with an opaque white tin glaze, and individually hand-painted with ceramic pigments prior to firing.

Authentic pieces feature painter initials or factory marks such as HR or Henriot Quimper on the base, accompanied by hand-painted details and characteristic folk figures in regional costume.

Small faience trays can be displayed on a vanity or bedside table to hold jewellery, or mounted on a wall as part of a decorative ceramic gallery display.

Washing should be completed by hand using lukewarm water and mild detergent, avoiding harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or immersion in dishwashers.
