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.

The Edwardian era, spanning roughly 1901 to 1915, is characterised by light, garland-style designs, delicate lace-like platinum filigree, and the prominent use of diamonds and natural coloured gemstones.

Star sapphire pendants traditionally utilise natural corundum cabochons displaying asterism, held within claw settings composed of platinum or gold and frequently accented with diamond-set bails.

Authentic Edwardian pieces feature precise millegrain edging, platinum or silver-topped gold mountings, period-appropriate hallmarks, and natural gemstones showing characteristic structural inclusions.

An antique star sapphire pendant functions as a focal statement piece, pairing effectively with minimalist evening attire or dark tailored garments to emphasise the subtle grey tones of the gem.

Clean the pendant gently using warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals that could compromise gemstone clarity or delicate metalwork.
