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.

Italian Old Master paintings from this era typically feature dramatic chiaroscuro lighting, emotional depth, and classical composition techniques. Works frequently depict religious or classical scenes with rich colour palettes and rendered drapery.

Artists during this period prepared hand-stretched linen canvases primed with gesso ground. Pigments were hand-ground and bound in linseed or walnut oil to create durable paint layers.

Authenticity is evaluated through physical indicators such as natural surface craquelure, age-appropriate oxidisation of the canvas stretcher, historical pigment analysis, and evidence of period framing techniques.

A large historical oil painting acts as a focal point when set against neutral, minimalist walls or combined with contemporary furniture to create a curated contrast of periods.

Keep the canvas away from direct sunlight, heating sources, and fluctuating humidity levels. Dust gently with a soft, dry brush and consult a professional conservator for surface cleaning or restoration.
