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.

A Victorian table snuff box is a substantial decorative vessel produced during the nineteenth century to contain powdered tobacco for sharing at a desk or dining table. Unlike personal pocket boxes, these larger table versions were designed as prominent decorative accessories for formal settings.

These boxes were primarily constructed from solid sterling silver or silver plate, often featuring gilt interiors to prevent chemical reactions between the metal and damp tobacco. Construction involved heavy-gauge sheet silver, integrated flush hinges, and meticulous hand-engraved ornamentation.

Authentic British examples feature a complete set of hallmarks, including the lion passant mark for sterling silver, an assay office symbol, a specific date letter, and the makers mark initials. Genuine pieces exhibit precise hinge fitting, hand-engraved motifs, and natural age-related oxidisation in deeper recesses.

Position the piece on a home office desk, bookshelf, or coffee table tray to add textural contrast alongside leather items and glassware. It functions as an accent object or functional storage for small desk items and jewellery.

Clean gently using a microfibre cloth and a specialised silver polish formulated to remove surface tarnish without abrading fine engraving. Avoid submerging in liquid cleaners or using harsh chemicals that remove protective patination in carved detail.
