What to Look For

Check the painting’s dimensions, including the frame, and confirm whether the image is painted directly onto silk, printed, or mounted onto another material. Examine photographs for foxing, fading, stains, creases, loose threads, flaking paint and water damage. Bird-and-flower pictures may include a seal or inscription, but do not assume these establish an artist or date; ask for clear close-ups if marks are important to you. Check whether the frame is original, later, or simply decorative, and look for glass reflections that conceal damage. Ask about backing, previous repairs and restoration. Confirm that the seller’s condition description matches the photographs, and check UK delivery packaging, insurance and return terms before buying.

Buying Tips

When comparing Chinese bird and flower paintings, check whether the image is painted on silk, paper or a printed fabric reproduction, and note the stated dimensions, including the frame. Inspect photographs for fading, foxing, creases, tears, lifting, stains and later retouching. A seal or inscription should be described rather than assumed to identify an artist or age. Ask about glazing, mounting and frame condition, then confirm UK postage, packaging, insurance and return terms before buying.
