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

Oriental export silver plate boxes were created primarily for Western export, blending traditional East Asian decorative motifs like bamboo, dragons, and ideograms with European functional objects such as tobacco and cigarette caskets.

These boxes were constructed from a base metal alloy, such as nickel or brass, which was electroplated with fine silver and worked with chased, repousse, or cast high-relief decoration.

Authentic items display crisp detail in the relief carving, wear patterns where base metal might show through on high points, and often feature character marks or maker stamps on the base.

Place the box on a timber desk, sideboard, or bookshelf to function as a refined storage solution for small office accessories, jewellery, or trinkets.

Maintain silver plate by dusting regularly with a microfibre cloth and using specialized, low-abrasive silver foam or polish sparingly to avoid removing the thin layer of silver plating.
