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

A gavel is a ceremonial mallet used by presiding officers, judges, or auctioneers to call for attention, signal parliamentary order, or punctuate the conclusion of a sale. Traditionally crafted from dense hardwoods, it serves as a symbol of authority and decisive action within legal, civic, and auction settings.

Ceremonial gavels are typically turned from dense hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, rosewood, or walnut to withstand repeated impacts. The striking head and handle are often fashioned separately on a lathe and fitted together using traditional joinery, sometimes featuring incised ring turning for grip and decoration.

Authentic antique gavels often show natural surface wear, patination, and minor bruising on the striking faces consistent with historic use. Look for hand-turned construction marks, end-grain shrinkage, and a polished patina that develops naturally over decades rather than modern lacquered finishes.

A vintage gavel serves as an intriguing tactile curio when displayed on a desk, bookshelf, or mantelpiece alongside leather-bound books and brass accessories. Placing it atop a stack of volumes or within a glass display cloche adds a sense of history and character to a study or home office.

Dust the gavel regularly with a soft, dry cloth and avoid applying harsh chemical cleaners or water. To maintain the timbers lustre and prevent drying out, apply a small amount of high-quality beeswax polish occasionally, buffing gently along the grain.
