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

Zoomorphic calligraphy is a traditional Islamic art form where Arabic script is arranged to form the silhouette of an animal, bird, or object, combining literary meaning with visual representation.

These panels are typically hand-carved from hardwoods such as walnut, teak, or pine, using relief carving techniques before being painted, gilded, or finished with natural pigments.

Authentic pieces display hand-tool marks, uneven relief depths, natural age cracking along the wood grain, and original layered paint or pigment wear that shows exposure over time.

A carved plaque works well as a focal point above a sideboard or console table, integrated into a curated gallery wall, or contrasted against clean, minimalist neutral backgrounds.

Dust gently with a soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources, high humidity, or direct sunlight to prevent flaking and cracking of the painted finish.
