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

Paper collage artwork from the 19th century involves assembling cut paper, fabric, or card onto a secondary backing to construct a layered visual narrative. This form of art was a popular medium for domestic crafts and folk artists during the Victorian era.

Artists utilised handmade rag paper, woven textiles, watercolour washes, ink, and graphite. Frames were commonly constructed from moulded timber, such as mahogany or rosewood, often featuring a gilded interior slip.

Authentic pieces display signs of natural age, such as foxing, paper toning, and uneven edges on hand-cut elements. The timber frames usually feature historical joinery, original backboards, and hand-cut glass.

Position small framed artworks in a gallery wall arrangement alongside contemporary graphics, or display them individually in narrow spaces like alcoves or entryways to create a point of interest.

Keep paper collages out of direct sunlight and away from high humidity to prevent fading and mould growth. Ensure the artwork is mounted behind UV-protective glass using acid-free materials.
