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

Folk art carvings were typically created by regional artisans or self-taught craftspeople using local timber and hand-mixed paints to depict religious icons, regional figures, or everyday subjects.

Artisans typically used softwoods or hardwoods suited to whittling, applying gesso layers alongside hand-painted pigments, cloth elements, or sculpted plaster finishes over the underlying timber structure.

Authentic pieces generally display hand-tool marks, uneven proportions, natural timber shrinkage cracks, and original layered paint patination with genuine age-related wear.

Positioning a pair of folk art carvings on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or sideboard adds texture and historic contrast when paired alongside modern minimalism or rustic decor.

Dust gently with a soft dry brush, avoiding water, solvents, or abrasive polishes that could lift original paint flakes or damage delicate fabric overlays.
