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.

Staffordshire flatback figures are press-moulded earthenware ornaments produced in Staffordshire, England, predominantly during the 19th century, featuring flat, unpainted backs designed to sit neatly against mantelpieces.

These figures were created using press-moulding techniques with white earthenware clay in plaster moulds, followed by an initial firing, lead glazing, and hand-applied overglaze polychrome enamel decoration.

Authentic period pieces feature unglazed, relatively flat bases with small firing holes, slight glaze crazing, soft moulded details from repeated mould use, and age-consistent wear to the overglaze enamels.

Position these figures as sculptural accents on mantelpieces, open bookshelves, or console tables within traditional or eclectic interior schemes to introduce historical narrative and colour.

Clean the surfaces gently with a dry, soft microfibre brush or cloth, avoiding water immersion or liquid detergents which can lift delicate overglaze enamels or penetrate crazed glaze.
