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.

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

Satsuma porcelain from the Meiji period (18681912) is distinguished by its cream-coloured earthenware body, finely crackled glaze, and elaborate polychrome enamel decoration heightened with heavy gilding depicting figures, landscapes, or mythological motifs.

These lighting pieces consist of a glazed earthenware or ceramic body decorated with overglaze enamels and gold leaf, mounted onto cast metal, bronze, or wooden bases with electrical fittings and fabric lampshades.

Authentic pieces feature delicate, tight crackle glazes beneath complex hand-painted enamel detail and precise gilding, often accompanied by Japanese maker marks, signatures, or Shimazu crests painted on the base.

A pair of Satsuma lamps works effectively when positioned symmetrically on a dark wood sideboard, console table, or bedside cabinets, providing a rich focal point that contrasts with contemporary neutral walls.

Dust the ceramic body gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding water or chemical cleaners that could degrade the delicate surface gilding and overglaze enamels, while ensuring electrical wiring is periodically checked.
