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.

Folk art wooden figures are hand-carved objects created by non-academic artisans, characterised by simplified forms, local materials, and naive representations of everyday figures, trades, or sports.

Craftsmen typically utilised locally sourced softwoods or hardwoods, carving the figure from a single block or assembling jointed elements, finished with oil paint or natural pigments.

Authentic pieces display genuine surface wear, tool marks from hand carving, historic paint loss in high-touch areas, and natural wood patination consistent with age.

Naive carvings add visual texture and historical narrative when positioned individually on a bookshelf, mantelpiece, or console table alongside modern ceramics and structured foliage.

Keep carved wooden figures away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity to prevent paint flaking or wood splitting, dusting gently with a soft dry brush rather than liquid cleaners.
