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

Produced during the Georgian era, these specialised sets were designed specifically for eating fruit and sweet desserts without reacting to acidic juices. They feature sterling silver blades and tines paired with mother-of-pearl or bone handles.

These sets predominantly featured hallmarked sterling silver components combined with carved mother-of-pearl handles. Fitted presentation cases were typically constructed from wood lined with silk and velvet.

Authentic pieces carry British hallmark stamps indicating the standard mark, maker mark, assay office mark, and date letter corresponding to the production year. Joins between the ferrules and handles show historical plaster resin filling techniques.

Display open presentation cases flat on a dining room sideboard, console table, or within a glazed display cabinet to showcase the contrasting lining and iridescent handles. They also serve as historic accent pieces during formal table settings.

Clean silver blades gently using a dry silver polishing cloth, avoiding immersion of mother-of-pearl handles in water to prevent adhesive degradation. Store items inside fitted presentation boxes to avoid tarnishing and physical damage.
