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.

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

Seventeenth-century European portraiture is defined by Baroque stylistic influences, including dramatic lighting contrasts, formal postures, elaborate period garments such as lace cravats and full periwigs, and frequently an oval spandrel framing technique within the canvas composition.

Artists during this era primarily painted in oils on hand-loomed linen canvas or solid oak panels. Frames were typically hand-carved from timber and finished with water-gilded gold leaf over a clay bole base.

Authentic period paintings display natural age-related craquelure across the paint surface, historical stretcher bar impressions, hand-forged nails, and evidence of natural varnish oxidisation under ultraviolet light.

An antique portrait works effectively as a focal point above a mantelpiece or sideboard, or integrated into an eclectic gallery wall paired with minimalist modern furniture to create visual contrast.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight, moisture, and fluctuating heat sources. Dust gently with a soft dry brush, and avoid applying water or chemical cleaners directly to the oil surface or gold leaf.
