Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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

Victorian library globes are three-dimensional cartographic representations of the Earth or celestial sphere produced during the 19th century, designed for navigational reference, educational instruction, and decorative placement in private studies.

Globe spheres were traditionally constructed using papier-mache or plaster over an internal wooden spindle, overlaid with hand-coloured printed paper gores, and mounted within brass meridian rings on turned wooden stands.

Authentic period globes feature printed cartouches detailing the maker and date, period-accurate geopolitical boundaries, engraved brass meridian rings, and uniform age-related yellowing or varnish discolouration.

A pair of antique globes serves as a sculptural accent when displayed on a sideboard, large desk, or open bookcase, contrasting effectively with clean-lined contemporary furniture and neutral colour palettes.

Position globes away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to prevent paper lifting and varnish cracking, dusting the surfaces gently with a soft dry brush rather than liquid solutions.
