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

Eighteenth-century Meissen porcelain is characterised by hard-paste ceramic construction, vibrant enamel ground colours, gilded cartouches, and intricate hand-painted vignettes depicting pastoral or romantic scenes.

Hard-paste porcelain was created by fusing kaolin clay and feldspathic stone at high firing temperatures, resulting in a dense, translucent white body suitable for detailed enamel painting and gilding.

Authentic pieces feature the iconic underglaze blue crossed swords mark on the base, crisp hand-painted detailing, fine burnished gilding, and the characteristic translucency of true hard-paste ceramic.

Display the bowl as a focal accent on a minimalist sideboard, inside a glass cabinet, or on a mantelpiece alongside understated modern decorative objects to create balanced visual contrast.

Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or horsehair brush. Avoid water immersion, harsh chemical cleansers, and abrasive pads to protect the delicate surface enamels and gilding.
