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

During the late Edo and Meiji periods in Japan, master metalworkers shifted from crafting traditional armour to creating decorative bronze sculptures for display, often featuring intricate mythological figures, deities, and naturalistic motifs.

These figures were typically cast using lost-wax processes (cire perdue) from copper alloys, followed by detailed hand-chiselling, carving, and applying chemically induced patinas to achieve rich, dark surface tones.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit high-level hand-finishing details, age-appropriate wear on raised surfaces, heavy cast weight, traditional jointing techniques, and occasionally artist seals or signatures cast or incised near the base.

Displaying a patinated bronze figure on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or side table creates a dramatic accent that pairs well with dark wood finishes, stone surfaces, or layered antique collections.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth or soft-bristled brush. Avoid water, harsh chemical cleaners, or abrasive polishes, and periodically apply a light coat of clear microcrystalline wax to guard against oxidisation.
