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.

Late Victorian portraiture frequently utilised charcoal or graphite to create detailed, tone-heavy depictions of sitters, reflecting the formal aesthetic conventions and photographic influences of the late 19th century.

Artists typically used compressed or vine charcoal on heavy cotton rag paper, which was then housed behind glass within moulded timber or gilded frames to prevent smudging and environmental exposure.

Authentic period examples generally display natural paper age toning, foxing, original backing boards, and genuine pencil or ink artist signatures accompanied by 19th-century dates.

A monochrome antique portrait functions well as an anchor piece within a modern gallery wall or displayed independently above a piece of occasional furniture to add historical contrast.

Preserve charcoal drawings by keeping them framed under UV-filtering glass, avoiding high-humidity areas or direct sunlight, and ensuring non-acidic mountboard is used.
