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.

British equestrian portraiture traditionally focuses on detailed renderings of horses, depicted in profile against pastoral landscape backcloths to highlight anatomical structure and pedigree.

Traditional pastel studies utilise soft pigment sticks applied to textured paper or board, requiring glazed wooden framing to protect the delicate surface from smudging and moisture.

Authentic pieces display age-appropriate paper toning, subtle foxing, original artist signatures or inscriptions, and period framing techniques featuring wooden backings.

Hang the pair symmetrically above a sideboard or along a hallway gallery wall to create visual balance and add warmth through natural tones.

Display pastels away from direct sunlight and high humidity, ensuring glass glazing is used without directly touching the artwork surface.
