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 nineteenth century, novelty corkscrews featuring symbolic motifs such as clasped hands representing friendship or unity became popular decorative accessories for dining rooms and private clubs.

These items were predominantly constructed using cast brass, bronzed metal alloys, and tempered steel worms designed to withstand repeated mechanical leverage.

Authentic pieces often exhibit fine casting seam lines, natural oxidisation in crevices, period-appropriate helix shapes, and substantial weight typical of solid cast brass.

It can be displayed alongside period decanters on a drinks trolley, arranged on a sideboard top, or placed within a gentlemans library bookshelf setting.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners that can strip original patination or surface bronzing.
