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

Ceramic gaming tokens were utilised as counters or markers for scoring and tracking stakes in traditional parlour and card games such as whist, ombre, or quadrille during the 18th and 19th centuries.

These tokens were typically crafted from fine porcelain or earthenware, decorated with hand-painted overglaze enamel illustrations and trimmed with gold leaf gilding.

Authentic 19th-century counters display minor variations inherent to hand-applied enamels, gentle surface wear to the gilded rims, and period-appropriate copperplate or handwritten cursive lettering.

Small decorative tokens can be mounted in bespoke shadow-box frames as wall art, arranged on small trays, or displayed under glass cloches on bookshelves and sideboards.

Dust the surfaces gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding water immersion, abrasive materials, or chemical cleaners that could erode the delicate overglaze paint and gilding.
