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.
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.

Mid-20th-century marcasite jewellery frequently drew inspiration from Art Deco and Victorian motifs, combining polished silver settings with faceted iron pyrite stones to create subtle brilliance alongside colourful gemstones like amethyst.

These pendants were traditionally constructed using sterling silver or silver alloys, handset with marquise or round-cut amethysts and pave-set marcasite stones attached with bead settings.

Authentic pieces generally feature hallmark stamps on the bail or reverse, milgrain borders surrounding individual stones, and natural oxidisation within the silver recessed areas.

Small vintage jewellery items can be displayed within glass cloches, framed behind glass on velvet backdrops, or arranged on decorative marble vanity trays.

Clean gently using a soft, dry lint-free cloth. Avoid immersing marcasite jewellery in water or chemical cleaners, as moisture can weaken stone settings and ruin the oxidised finish.
