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.
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.
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.

Neoclassical pedestals draw inspiration from classical antiquity, incorporating Greco-Roman architectural elements such as Ionic volutes, fluting, urn motifs, and husked garlands. Emerging in the mid-18th century as a reaction against Rococo excess, these decorative columns were designed to elevate sculpture, vases, and busts.

Original Neoclassical plinths were crafted from carved marble, solid mahogany, or gilded wood, alongside painted fibrous plaster or terracotta. Plaster pieces allowed detailed architectural mouldings to be cast efficiently and finished with decorative distemper or paint.

Authentic plaster pedestals feature hand-applied paint layers showing natural ageing, craquelure, and minor chipping around high-relief areas like volutes and bas-relief drops. They exhibit significant weight due to dense plaster mixtures, often with timber internal frameworks or square base reinforcements.

In contemporary settings, a tall pedestal serves as a dramatic structural accent in an entry foyer, hallway corner, or beside a window. It can be used to display a marble bust, modern ceramic vessel, or trailing houseplant to add verticality and architectural interest.

Dust the surface gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or horsehair brush to prevent scratching fragile paint layers. Avoid water, liquid detergents, or abrasive cleaners, as plaster is highly porous and liquid can cause paint flaking or staining.
