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 19th-century scientific thermometer is a precision instrument designed for laboratory, medical, or meteorological measurement using liquid expansion inside a sealed glass tube.

These instruments were crafted using hand-blown glass tubing with fine capillary bores, filled with mercury or spirit, and often featured fine enamel or paper scales enclosed within paperboard or wooden protective cases.

Authenticity is indicated by fine hand-engraved or early printed numerical scales, delicate glasswork with sealed pontils, historical temperature scales such as Reaumur or Celsius, and original fitted pasteboard cases.

Scientific instruments of this period are suited for arrangement within a glass display dome, curated upon an office desk, or integrated into a library shelf alongside leather-bound volumes.

Store the item flat inside its protective casing away from direct heat sources to prevent liquid expansion, handle with clean cotton gloves, and dust carefully with a dry microfibre cloth.
