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.

19th-century portraiture frequently featured formal depictions of middle and upper-class individuals, designed to record family lineage and social standing prior to the widespread adoption of studio photography.

These artworks were typically executed using oil paints applied to woven canvas, stretchers made of softwood timber, and framed in heavy gesso-moulded timber with gold leaf gilding.

Authentic period paintings exhibit natural craquelure across the paint surface, historic wooden stretchers, period mounting hardware, and subtle oxidisation or darkening on the reverse of the canvas.

Hanging a pair of historic oil portraits above a sleek contemporary console table or integrating them into a mixed-era gallery wall creates visual contrast and introduces character to modern spaces.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity, dusting the frames lightly with a soft dry brush and seeking specialist conservation services for varnish cleaning.
