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

Victorian portrait figurines are moulded ceramic statuettes produced predominantly in Staffordshire, England, depicting prominent historical, political, religious, or theatrical personalities of the 19th century.

These figures were typically made from earthenware or soft-paste porcelain, painted over-glaze with enamel colours, and sometimes finished with gilded accents.

Authentic pieces generally display craquelure in the glaze, a hollow base with a small release hole, unwedged mould lines, and wear consistent with age on the underside of the base.

Displaying these small statuettes in curated groupings on a mantelpiece, inside a glass cabinet, or amongst books on a shelf adds historic character to modern spaces.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or dry soft-bristled brush, avoiding water or chemical detergents that could damage delicate over-glaze enamels.
