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

During the 18th and 19th centuries, apothecary jars were used by chemists and pharmacists to store dried herbs, powders, and medicinal preparations for display on shop shelving.

These vessels were crafted from blown glass and decorated using internal mercury silvering or verre eglomise techniques, combined with hand-painted gilt lettering and enamel details.

Authentic period examples typically display hand-blown glass irregularities, pontil marks on the base, natural flaking or oxidation to the internal silvering, and period-appropriate hand gilding.

Position the jar on a sideboard, mantlepiece, or open bookcase to introduce historic texture and metallic patina into modern curated living spaces.

Dust the exterior surface using a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Avoid applying water, chemical glass cleaners, or immersion, as moisture damages delicate internal silvering and painted gilding.
