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

During the 20th century, major European porcelain manufacturers expanded their production to include realistic animalier sculptures depicting wildlife in dynamic, naturalistic poses inspired by nature and anatomical study.

Fine porcelain figurines are manufactured using hard-paste porcelain composed of kaolin, feldspar, and quartz, which is cast in moulds, fired at high temperatures, and individually detailed with hand-painted enamel glazes.

Authentic pieces feature the factory mark of crossed swords hand-painted under the glaze on the base, alongside incised model numbers, press numbers, and painter identification marks.

A porcelain sculpture functions well as a focal accent on a bookshelf, mantelpiece, or console table, providing organic form and visual interest alongside contemporary furnishings.

Dust the item regularly with a soft, dry brush or lint-free cloth, and wash gently with lukewarm water and soft soap if necessary, avoiding chemical cleaners or abrasive pads.
