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

Meissen porcelain figure groups are sculpted ceramic displays produced by the famed Meissen manufactory in Saxony, Germany, which pioneered European hard-paste porcelain in the early 18th century.

These figures are crafted from hard-paste porcelain made from kaolin and petuntse, cast in press moulds, fired at high temperatures, and individually decorated with overglaze polychrome enamels and gilt.

Authentic examples feature the underglaze blue crossed swords mark on the base, incised model numbers, press numbers, and distinctive high-precision hand-painted details.

Displaying a porcelain figure group on a minimalist mantelpiece, inside a glass cabinet, or alongside contemporary art books creates a balanced contrast between historic sculpture and modern design.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry, soft-bristled brush or clean feather duster, avoiding harsh liquids, chemical cleaners, or immersion in water that might damage delicate enamelling.
