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.

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

Apothecary bottles were historically used by chemists, pharmacists, and apothecaries to store dry and liquid medicines, herbs, and chemical compounds before modern packaging.

These pieces were typically crafted using blown or moulded glass, often featuring ground glass stoppers or wooden lids, and paper or ceramic enamel labels.

Authentic items often show characteristic manufacturing flaws such as pontil marks, air bubbles, slight colour variations in the glass, and aged paper labels with handwritten or early printed lettering.

They can be displayed grouped together on open shelving, mantelpieces, or inside glass-fronted cabinets to add a sense of history and colour to a contemporary space.

Clean them gently with a soft dry cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleaners that might damage aged paper labels, and keep them out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
