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 Enlightenment era, French naturalists and artists documented global flora and fauna through detailed copperplate engravings, often created to illustrate comprehensive multi-volume scientific publications.

These works were produced on handmade cotton rag paper using copperplate engraving techniques, combining etched line work with hand-applied colour washes or specialized colour printing methods.

Authentic prints from this era feature an indented plate mark along the margin created by printing pressure, visible wire lines within the rag paper when backlit, and subtle age-related paper toning.

A framed zoological print functions as a focal point above a console, within a library setting, or as part of a curated gallery wall alongside other historical botanical and animal studies.

Keep the print framed using acid-free mounting tape and conservation-grade glass, ensuring placement away from direct UV exposure, excess moisture, and extreme temperature shifts to avoid foxing.
