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

French religious medallions produced in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were created during a revival of devotional metalwork. Renowned engravers and medallists sculpted detailed designs in low relief, blending sacred imagery with contemporary artistic movements such as Art Nouveau.

These medallions were typically struck in solid precious metals, predominantly 18K yellow gold or sterling silver, using die-striking techniques that permitted precise artistic detail and durability.

Authentic French gold items bear official state hallmarks, such as the Eagles Head stamp for 18K gold. Many high-quality pieces also feature the makers mark or signature of the engraver stamped directly into the metal surface.

Gold jewellery can be maintained by washing gently with warm water, mild detergent, and a soft-bristled toothbrush. A soft polishing cloth should be used to dry the piece, avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Antique pendants are frequently worn on contemporary gold chains, layered alongside modern necklaces, or attached to charm bracelets to combine historical metalwork with personal jewelry styling.
