During this time, he began decorating sagger ware plaques bought in from other potteries which he then fired in a kiln attached to his premises.

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 pottery plaques are decorative earthenware or porcelain plates and slabs featuring hand-painted scenic, natural, or figurative artwork, widely produced by British potteries during the nineteenth century.

These plaques were crafted from refined earthenware or fine porcelain, coated with glaze, and hand-painted using overglaze enamel pigments before undergoing kiln firing to fix the artwork permanently.

Authentic examples often feature impressed or printed manufacturer backmarks, painted artist signatures or initials, pattern numbers, natural glaze crazing, and evidence of period kiln support marks.

Display the piece on a plate stand upon a console table, integrate it into a curated bookshelf arrangement, or mount it as part of an eclectic gallery wall to incorporate historic narrative art.

Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical detergents or water immersion, and display away from direct heat sources and high humidity.
