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

Wood pedestals and plinths emerged during classical revival periods to elevate sculptures, decorative urns, and portrait busts to eye level, providing structured symmetry within traditional interiors.

Traditional wooden pedestals were crafted using dense hardwoods such as mahogany or oak, featuring hand-carved details like fluted shafts, rosette panels, and stepped plinth bases joined with traditional mortise and tenon joinery.

Authentic historic pedestals display signs of genuine age, including natural wood shrinkage, oxidisation in unvarnished interior areas, hand-cut joinery, and subtle variations in carved elements across matching pairs.

Wooden pedestals serve as versatile anchors in modern homes when positioned to frame doorways, highlight ceramic art, support indoor plants, or balance empty architectural alcoves.

Dust carved detailing regularly with a soft bristle brush, maintain stable humidity to prevent timber splitting, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually to protect the original finish.
