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 Victorian era, hair jewellery served as sentiment keepsakes given to commemorate loved ones, friends, or family members. These pieces ranged from hair woven inside protective glass lockets to elaborate hair-work chains.

19th-century hair lockets were typically constructed from high-carat gold such as 15ct or 18ct, pinchbeck, or silver, combined with bevelled or domed glass covers to preserve the hair sample within.

Authentic pieces feature period-accurate metal hallmarks, hand-engraved scrollwork or foliate motifs, and glass-encased compartments housing preserved, hand-arranged hair strands rather than modern synthetic prints.

These pendants are frequently worn as statement neckwear, suspended from fine gold chains, split rings, or dark velvet ribbons to complement contemporary tailoring.

Keep the locket dry and away from direct moisture, perfumes, and cleaning chemicals to prevent water ingress behind the glass cover. Clean the gold rim gently using a soft microfiber polishing cloth.
