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

Popularised in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, tea urns served as central hot water vessels for tea preparation during formal social gatherings, utilising an integrated spigot tap.

These vessels were constructed from base metals such as copper or brass electroplated with silver, often featuring cast decorative mounts and heat-resistant wooden or bone elements on the tap.

Authentic period pieces generally display makers stamps or electroplating marks, period-correct cast details such as acanthus leaves, and evidence of historic hand-chased finishing.

An antique silver tea urn functions as a decorative focal point when placed on a sideboard, kitchen island, or drinks trolley, providing metallic contrast against contemporary backgrounds.

Clean gently using a soft cotton cloth and specialised silver polish formulated for electroplated surfaces, avoiding harsh abrasives that could wear away the silver layer.
