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.

Portrait miniatures are detailed paintings executed on a small scale, commonly produced during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries on materials such as paper, vellum, or ivory, and frequently housed within leather folding cases or metal frames.

These pieces generally utilise watercolour or gouache paints applied to thin ground surfaces, set behind glass inside embossed brass mounts, velvet interior linings, and outer leather or papier-mache cases.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces display period-accurate clothing styles, precise hand painted brushwork visible under magnification, age-appropriate patination on metal trims, and traditional casing methods.

Open cased miniatures can be displayed upright on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or desk, alongside antique brassware, glass curios, or contemporary framed artwork to create a layered vignette.

Store and display the item away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity levels. Clean the exterior leather case with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid opening the glass glazing to protect delicate paint layers.
