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

During the Edwardian period, solid silver card cases were essential social etiquette accessories used to carry personal visiting or calling cards when making formal calls.

Edwardian card cases were typically crafted from hallmarked sterling silver, featuring hand-engraved foliate patterns, chased relief decorations, and hinged tops with push-spring catches.

Authentic pieces display official British silver hallmarks, including a makers mark, town mark such as the Birmingham anchor, lion passant for sterling quality, and a date letter.

An antique silver card case can be displayed flat or on a small easel stand on an office desk, styled inside a glass display cabinet, or placed on a console table.

Clean silver items gently with a soft microfibre cloth and specialised silver polish, avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners, and store them in tarnish-resistant cloth bags away from excessive moisture.
