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.

The motif originates from Raphaels 1512 Renaissance masterpiece, the Sistine Madonna, which depicts two pensive putti at the base of the canvas. In fine jewellery and medals, this figurative detail became a traditional emblem associated with protection, faith, and innocence.

Two-tone gold medals are typically constructed using 18-carat yellow and white gold alloys, often produced via die-striking to achieve crisp bas-relief detailing. The central plaque and outer border are assembled separately to create distinct tonal contrast.

French 18-carat gold items feature official state assay marks, such as the eagles head mark (tete daigle) stamped onto the bail or rim. Additionally, pieces often contain a rhomboidal makers mark indicating the goldsmiths workshop.

A gold medallion pendant can be worn individually on a fine neck chain or layered with necklaces of varying lengths and textures for a contemporary look. It can also be attached to a charm bracelet or displayed on a fabric-lined tray on a dressing table.

Clean 18-carat gold using warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth or soft-bristled brush to remove dust from relief surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners and store the piece separately in a fabric pouch to prevent surface scratches.
