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.

Mustard pots became prominent fixtures on British dining tables during the 18th and 19th centuries as dry mustard flour gave way to prepared wet mustard. Victorian examples often reflected elaborate architectural and revival styles, serving both functional and decorative roles during formal multi-course dining.

These vessels are typically crafted from sterling silver or silver plate and fitted with a removable glass liner. The cobalt blue or clear glass interior was essential to protect the silver metal from corrosive mustard acids.

Authentic British pieces feature full hallmark stamps including the monarchs mark, sterling lion passante, city mark, date letter, and makers mark. The weight of the silver, quality of hand-piercing or chasing, and era-appropriate glass liners also indicate authenticity.

An antique mustard pot can be incorporated into modern dining table settings, displayed inside a glass cabinet, or reused on a dressing table to store small items of jewellery.

Silver components should be cleaned using a specialised silver polishing cloth or gentle non-abrasive silver cream to remove oxidisation. Glass liners should be washed separately in warm soapy water and dried thoroughly before replacement.
