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

A Canton shawl, also known as a Manila shawl, is a traditional hand-embroidered silk garment originating in Canton, China, historically exported to Europe and the Americas during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

These garments are crafted from woven silk fabric adorned with fine silk thread hand embroidery, finished with intricate hand-knotted macrame fringing around the perimeter.

Authentic pieces feature double-sided hand embroidery where the pattern appears near-identical on both sides, tight hand-knotted fringe work, and subtle variations in stitching indicative of manual production.

These versatile textiles are frequently displayed draped over grand pianos, styled across the back of a sofa, or mounted as decorative wall hangings in period interiors.

Keep silk textiles stored flat wrapped in acid-free tissue paper away from light and humidity, avoiding hanging them for extended periods to prevent structural stretching of the threads.
