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

During the 19th century, decorative birdcages were crafted as functional display pieces for domestic spaces, combining practical elements like slide-out trays with architectural forms mirroring contemporary furniture styles.

Traditional construction typically utilised hardwoods such as mahogany or oak for the outer framework, combined with drawn brass or iron wire bars and zinc slide-out cleaning trays.

Authentic period pieces display hand-cut joinery, original wire featuring natural oxidisation, natural wear along perches, and period-appropriate glass or ceramic feeding vessels.

An antique birdcage serves as a focal accent placed on a sideboard, console table, or deep window sill, displayed either as a standalone architectural form or housing botanical arrangements.

Clean the timber frame with a soft dry cloth and apply natural beeswax sparingly, while gently brushing metal wires with a dry bristled tool to preserve the existing patina without removing natural oxidisation.
