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 19th century, metalworkers across Northern India and Persia produced elaborate hand-chased and repousse bronze and copper plaques depicting courtly scenes, folklore, and intricate floral motifs for both domestic architectural decoration and export.

Artisans crafted these pieces using sheet bronze or copper, shaping figures from behind using the repousse technique and detailing the front surface with chiselling and chasing tools to create depth and texture.

Authentic period pieces feature uneven hand-hammering on the reverse, natural surface patination or oxidisation in deeper recesses, and varied hand-tooling rather than uniform modern machine casting.

Mount the plaque on a neutral wall, display it using a easel stand atop a console table, or integrate it into a curated shelf arrangement alongside modern art and ceramic forms.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid chemical polishes, applying a light coat of microcrystalline wax if necessary to protect the natural aged patina from atmospheric moisture.
