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

A mezzotint is an intaglio printmaking technique that creates tone by systematically roughening a metal copper plate with a spiked tool called a rocker. The artist then smooths areas to create light and subtle gradations, resulting in soft transitions and deep shadows.

Prints from this era typically feature rag paper printed with oil-based inks, often hand-coloured with watercolours. Frames are commonly constructed from carved pine or softwoods coated in gesso and finished with leafed gilding.

Authentic mezzotints display a distinct plate mark indented into the paper around the image border. Under magnification, the print shows continuous velvety tonal tones rather than modern dot-matrix patterns, often accompanied by age-appropriate foxing or gentle paper yellowing.

Position a matched pair symmetrically above a sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table to establish a formal focal point. The rich wood tones and gilded frames complement classic scheme colours, minimalist backdrops, or contemporary dark wall finishes.

Display prints away from direct sunlight and high humidity to prevent fading and paper warping. Clean the glass with a dry microfibre cloth and dust gilt frames gently with a soft brush, avoiding chemical cleaners or water.
