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

Apothecary jars were functional storage vessels used by 19th-century chemists and pharmacists to store dry chemicals, herbs, and powdered medicinal ingredients. They frequently featured hand-painted or gold-leaf labels specifying the contents.

These jars were typically hand-blown or heavy moulded clear, green, or amber glass, featuring ground glass stoppers for airtight seals and reverse-painted or gilt labelling.

Authentic pieces often display pontil marks on the base, minor glass imperfections like air bubbles, ground glass stoppers fitted specifically to the neck, and genuine distress or oxidisation on gilt lettering.

Place these vessels individually or in curated groups on open shelving, fireplace mantels, or bathroom counters to introduce a sense of historic curiosity and tactile depth.

Clean the glass exterior gently with a dry or slightly damp microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals, moisture, or scrubbing near delicate gold leaf or flaking painted labels.
