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.

Satirical art from the eighteenth century, largely popularised by William Hogarth, offered humorous social commentary and moral narratives critiquing contemporary British life.

Works from this era were commonly painted using oil on canvas or wooden panel, displayed within carved wood or composition frames coated in gold leaf.

Authentic period pieces display age-appropriate craquelure across the painted surface, historical frame moulding profiles, and hand-cut timber backing showing natural oxidisation.

Display narrative artwork prominently above a console table or mantelpiece, contrasting its historical theme against clean modern lines and neutral colour palettes.

Keep the artwork out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources, dusting the picture and gilded frame lightly with a soft, dry microfibre brush.
