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.

An Edwardian amethyst drop necklace typically dates from 1901 to 1910 and is characterised by delicate linear drops, fine chainwork, and bezel or claw-set purple amethyst gemstones. Often referred to as a lavalier pendant, this style emphasises light, geometric, and vertical arrangements.

Edwardian jewellery commonly featured yellow gold, rose gold, platinum, or silver settings paired with natural gemstones such as amethyst, peridot, seed pearls, and diamonds. Chains were typically fine trace or link styles designed to highlight the central drop motif.

Authentic Edwardian pieces often display fine hand-finishing, delicate millgrain edges, and period-specific hallmarking on the clasp or frame. The construction generally favours lightweight, elegant drop structures rather than heavy cast metal components.

A drop necklace pairs well with simple necklines, such as V-neck tops or open-collared shirts, allowing the vertical pendant to hang cleanly. It can be worn alone as a focal piece or layered with contemporary fine gold chains.

Clean natural amethyst jewellery using a soft cloth and mild lukewarm soapy water, avoiding harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners. Store the item separately in a lined box or pouch to protect the soft gold mountings and gemstones from scratches.
