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

A belcher chain, also known as a rolo chain, features interlocking circular or oval links of uniform width and profile. Popularised during the Victorian era, long belcher chains were historically worn as guard or muff chains to secure pocket watches, lorgnettes, or pendants.

Antique belcher chains were predominantly constructed from solid karat yellow gold, such as 9ct or 15ct gold, as well as sterling silver. Links were individually formed and soldered, with chains frequently completed using swivel clasps or dog clips.

Authentic antique British gold chains typically feature traditional hallmarks or purity stamps such as 9 375 stamped on terminal links or clasps. Genuine period examples display hand-finished soldered link joins, gentle surface wear consistent with age, and period-correct swivel fasteners.

A 30-inch gold chain provides versatility, allowing it to be worn as a single long strand, looped twice around the neck, or layered alongside other gold necklaces. The swivel clip fastener allows antique lockets, seals, or pendants to be attached easily.

To preserve 9ct gold jewellery, clean the links using warm water, mild detergent, and a soft brush before drying with a lint-free cloth. Store the chain flat or suspended to prevent knotting, and avoid contact with harsh household chemicals.
