Archival Detail
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.

Sevres-style porcelain of the 19th century draws inspiration from the 18th-century French Royal Manufactory, featuring rich ground glazes such as cobalt blue, detailed gilded filigree, and hand-painted cartouches displaying romantic or pastoral figures.

These pieces are constructed from hard-paste porcelain painted with overglaze enamels and gold leaf gilding, adorned with cast and chased ormolu (gilt bronze) handles, necks, and pedestal bases.

Identification relies on examining the quality of the chased bronze mounts, the complexity of the hand-painted enamel reserves, and period production characteristics, as many 19th-century French workshops produced works inspired by 18th-century originals.

Positioning a symmetrical pair of porcelain urns on a sideboard or console table provides visual structure and incorporates classical historic narrative into modern residential spaces.

Dust surfaces using a dry, soft brush or microfibre cloth. Water should be avoided on gilt bronze mounts to prevent oxidisation, and abrasive liquid cleaners must never be applied to painted enamel or gold leaf.
