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.

Novelty bar brooches became prominent during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, spanning from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. These pieces were designed as slim horizontal pins featuring figurative motifs such as birds, hunting subjects, flora, and animals, worn to secure cravats, lace collars, or coat lapels.

Pieces from around 1900 typically utilised 14ct or 18ct yellow gold, often combined with silver-topped settings to hold diamonds and amplify their brilliance. Accent gemstone embellishments included rubies, sapphires, and hand-applied vitreous enamel detailing.

Authentic period brooches feature period-correct gemstone cuts, such as rose-cut or old-cut diamonds, mounted in hand-pierced settings. Look for historical fastener styles, such as simple tube hinges, un-hallmarked or period gold purity marks, and subtle hand-enamelling rather than modern epoxy resin.

An antique bar brooch can be worn on suit lapels, silk scarves, or heavy winter coats for subtle adornment. For interior display, collectors often mount these historical jewellery pieces inside velvet-lined glazed box frames or display cases on a dressing table.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth slightly dampened with warm water. Avoid chemical solvents, harsh detergents, and ultrasonic cleaners, as these can strip historical enamel or weaken antique silver and gold settings.
