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.

This seventeenth-century hand-coloured map of Monmouthshire originates from the seventeenth century and presents a detailed geographical layout encased in a traditional gilded wooden frame. The paper artwork features multi-coloured heraldic crests, royal coats of arms, figures, and an ornate decorative cartouche rendered in blue, red, gold, and green tones, all protected beneath a clear glass panel. Visible details include age-related staining across the cream-coloured paper and a vertical crease line running down the centre. The rectangular piece measures 51 cm high, 61 cm wide, and 2 cm deep. Ideal for placement above a sideboard in a study or a gentleman's library, this decorative wall art brings historic character to traditional or classic interior schemes. The antique map suits installation in living rooms, hallways, or home offices where traditional cartography complements period furniture and wood-panelled walls.

FAQs

During the 17th century, copperplate engraving emerged as the primary method for producing detailed county maps in Britain, often featuring hand-applied colour, heraldic crests, and decorative cartouches.

These maps were typically printed using oil-based inks on handmade rag paper, after which watercolour washes were applied by hand to highlight boundaries, rivers, and coats of arms.

Original 17th-century maps display a visible plate mark impression along the border, central fold marks from atlas binding, and distinct watermarks within the laid paper when held to light.

Framed antique maps serve as focal points in traditional studies, hallway galleries, or living spaces, providing historical context and graphic texture to neutral walls.

Keep paper maps out of direct sunlight to prevent fading of pigments, ensure UV-protective glass and acid-free mounting materials are used, and maintain stable humidity levels to avoid foxing.
