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

Late Qing dynasty metalwork frequently features cast bronze with detailed relief carving depicting natural subjects such as birds and flora, accompanied by mythical creature handles like dragons.

These vessels were typically produced using copper alloys through lost-wax or sand casting methods, followed by hand-chasing to refine surface details and hand-applied patination.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural age-related surface wear, deep dark patination, precise hand-chased relief details, and heavy structural weight consistent with cast copper alloy construction.

Position the vase on a sideboard or mantelpiece against muted or dark backdrops to accentuate its dark patina, pairing it with contemporary stone or timber surfaces.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a thin coat of microcrystalline wax annually to preserve the original patina without using abrasive chemical cleaners.
