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.

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.

Founded in Vienna in 1885 by Friedrich Goldscheider, the manufacture became famous for producing high-quality Art Nouveau, Orientalist, and Revivalist sculptures. Working with prominent sculptors, the foundry crafted detailed terracotta busts and figures that were exported internationally.

These sculptures were cast from refined terracotta clay and typically finished with cold-painted polychrome enamels or chemically patinated to simulate cast bronze. Many examples were mounted onto polished marble or alabaster plinths with metal trim.

Authentic pieces generally feature impressed factory marks on the reverse or base, such as Goldscheider Wien, model numbers, and sculptors signatures. Stamps indicating reproduction rights or copyright protection are also common on original castings.

A classical terracotta bust functions as a focal point when positioned on a wooden sideboard, marble mantelpiece, or dedicated pedestal. Its sculpted form provides visual contrast against clean modern architectural lines and contemporary backdrop tones.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth. Water, liquid cleaners, and chemical solvents should be avoided, as they can strip or discolour delicate cold-painted patinas and surface finishes.
