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.

Continental Baroque woodwork from the 17th and 18th centuries is characterised by dramatic movement, deep three-dimensional carving, spiral fluting, classical architectural elements, and figurative motifs such as cherubs or putti.

These columns were typically hand-carved from solid hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or lime wood, often finished with gesso, polychrome paint, or gilding to enhance visual depth and surface texture.

Authentic period pieces display evidence of hand-tool marks, natural wood shrinkage along the grain, slight asymmetry inherent to manual carving, and age-appropriate wear on elevated carved surfaces.

Position the piece on a sideboard or console table against a neutral backdrop to allow the intricate architectural carvings to serve as a strong sculptural focal point.

Dust gently using a soft, dry artist brush to reach tight crevices, avoid wet cleaning agents or harsh chemicals, and keep the object away from direct heat sources to prevent timber movement.
