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.
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 silver cased scent bottle is a small vessel designed during the nineteenth century to hold perfume, liquid fragrance, or smelling salts, often encased in decorative hallmarked sterling silver.

These items typically feature an internal glass vessel encasing the liquid, surrounded by an embossed or repousse sterling silver jacket with a hinged or screw-top cap.

Authentic period examples feature official British hallmark stamps indicating silver purity, city assay office, makers mark, and date letter, alongside characteristic period decoration such as hand-chased pastoral motifs.

Small silver scent bottles can be displayed on a dressing table tray, arranged inside a glass cabinet, or positioned alongside small art objects on a bedroom bedside table.

Wipe the silver casing using a dry microfibre silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish, avoiding chemical dips or water immersion that could damage internal glass fittings or cork seals.
