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

Meiji period (18681912) Japanese bronzes are recognized for intricate metal casting, relief carving, and mythical imagery such as dragons. During this era, Japanese metalworkers adapted traditional sword-fitting techniques to produce decorative wares for Western export.

These pieces were originally cast as decorative vases using lost-wax casting methods and finished with hand-carved relief details and patinated bronze finishes. In the 20th century, many were drilled and fitted with internal brass rod conduits to serve as electric table lamps.

Authentic Meiji bronzes display heavy weight, hand-finished relief carving, authentic age-related patination, and occasionally an impressed maker mark or seal on the base or lower body.

Positioning a symmetrical pair on a sideboard, console table, or wide desk creates balance. The dark patinated metal pairs well with contemporary neutral backdrops, muted wall coverings, and natural timber surfaces.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid liquid polish or chemical cleaners that strip patination; a light application of clear microcrystalline wax can be applied sparingly to protect the bronze finish.
