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.

Produced in Worcester between 1804 and 1813, this period of porcelain manufacture is renowned for soft-paste bodies, exceptionally fine hand-painted enamel decoration, elaborate gilding, and Regency classical forms.

These pieces were formed using liquid porcelain clay cast into plaster moulds, glaze-fired, and subsequently decorated by hand with mineral pigments and mercury gold leaf before undergoing secondary firings.

Authentic examples frequently display impressed crown marks, scratch marks, or script factory backstamps beneath the base, paired with precision hand-painted reserves and thick, highly burnished gold ornamentation.

Position them symmetrically on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or dining table to introduce classical proportions, warm metallic accents, and refined historical texture to modern rooms.

Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or delicate brush, avoiding liquid immersion, harsh detergents, or abrasive rubbing which can permanently wear away overglaze enamels and gold leaf.
