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.

First World War military art encompasses official field illustrations, personal sketches by serving personnel, and commemorative portraiture produced during or immediately following the 1914-1918 conflict. These works typically focus on uniform accuracy, combat gear, and infantry life.

Illustrators and war artists during this era primarily utilised watercolour and wash techniques on thick paper or card. Frames from the period often featured gilded timber profiles paired with dark card mounts.

Authentic period works feature accurate uniform details such as specific helmet models, webbing straps, and firearms corresponding to exact years. Paper age, natural light toning, original signatures, and period framing methods also assist in identification.

Military portraits work well within a gallery wall display or hung individually in a study or hallway alongside dark timber panelling or neutral backdrop walls.

Watercolour works should be hung away from direct sunlight and humid environments to prevent fading and foxing. Using UV-protective glass and acid-free mounting board helps maintain the paper and pigment over time.
