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, European foundries flourished due to advancements in casting techniques, producing classical and neoclassical figural bronzes inspired by ancient mythology, romantic ideals, and academic realism.

These sculptures were primarily cast using the lost-wax (cire perdue) or sand-casting methods, followed by hand-chasing to refine surface details and the application of chemical patinas to achieve specific colouration.

Authentic period bronzes typically display substantial weight, crisp hand-chasing around finer details such as hair and drapery, original foundry stamps or signatures, and natural wear patterns on the patination.

Classical bronzes serve as sophisticated focal points when displayed on a fireplace mantelpiece, wooden console table, or within a bookshelf, adding rich material contrast and historical narrative to modern settings.

Dust the surface regularly using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, and periodically apply a thin coat of clear microcrystalline wax with a soft cloth to protect the patina from moisture and oxidisation.
