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

A Victorian ocean liner porthole is a heavy-duty circular window encased in a solid metal frame, historically fitted into the hull or upper structure of ships to provide light and ventilation.

Maritime portholes were predominantly cast from solid brass or bronze to withstand saltwater corrosion, fitted with thick clear glass panes and heavy bolt fastenings.

Authentic pieces feature heavy cast metal construction, individual mounting bolt holes along the outer flange, casting marks, and surface patination consistent with age and maritime exposure.

A brass porthole can be wall-mounted as architectural artwork, fitted with mirror glass, or built directly into a wall partition or door to allow light transfer between rooms.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth, and apply a non-abrasive metal polish if a bright finish is preferred, though leaving the aged patina unpolished preserves historical character.
