Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

Georgian portraiture typically features naturalistic lighting, detailed costume rendering, and figurative subjects reflecting societal roles or classical influences during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.

Artists around 1800 primarily utilised hand-mixed oil pigments applied to stretched linen or cotton canvas, often prepared with a gesso or oil ground layer.

Authentic paintings from this era often display natural age craquelure, authentic oxidisation on the canvas reverse, and period-appropriate stretcher construction without modern staples.

Hang historical oil portraits as focal points on dark painted accent walls or above console tables, balanced with minimalist or traditional decorative accessories.

Preserve canvas paintings by displaying them away from direct sunlight, extreme humidity, and heat sources, removing surface dust using a soft dry brush.
