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.

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

Late Victorian costume paintings frequently depicted idealised scenes of 18th-century courtly life, romance, and transport, appealing to public nostalgia for historic elegance and narrative detail.

These artworks typically consist of oil pigments applied to stretched linen or hemp canvas, housed within composite wood frames finished with gold leaf or bronze powders.

Authentic period canvases display natural craquelure patterns, original artist signatures, structural age on the rear wooden stretchers, and subtle wear or oxidisation to the gilt frame.

Positioning a gilt-framed canvas above a timber sideboard or mantlepiece creates a formal focal point, contrasting classic metallic detailing against modern neutral or dark painted walls.

Keep the painting away from direct sunlight, dampness, and heat sources. Clean the frame and surface lightly using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding liquid cleaners.
