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.

A tazza is a shallow, saucer-shaped dish supported by a stem and foot, frequently crafted in metal or stone. Historically, French bronze library tazzas served as decorative accents on writing desks, bookcases, or mantelpieces during the 19th century, drawing inspiration from Classical antiquity.

Authentic examples feature patinated cast bronze dishes and stems mounted upon marble plinths, such as yellow Siena marble. Cast bronze components are finished with chased detailing and held together with internal threaded iron rods.

Look for hand-chasing on relief elements, cast bronze components with distinct physical weight, and natural wear to the original chemical patina. Authentic 19th-century pieces generally exhibit oxidation on internal fixings and natural veining throughout solid marble bases.

Displaying a symmetrical pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard, or executive office desk provides architectural structure. Their dark patinated finish and warm marble bases pair effectively with timber panelling, neutral plaster walls, or library shelving.

Dust bronze components regularly with a soft dry cloth or soft-bristled brush, avoiding abrasive polishes that strip original patination. Clean marble bases using a soft damp cloth with mild pH-neutral soap, avoiding water contact with metal joins.
