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.

Greek revival jewellery draws direct inspiration from ancient Hellenistic and Etruscan artefacts, popularised in the mid-to-late 20th century by goldsmiths like Ilias Lalaounis. Motifs often feature mythological beasts, such as the chimera or lion, combined with ancient metalworking techniques.

These bangles are constructed using hand-woven 18ct gold wire to form a flexible or rigid body, paired with lost-wax cast animal terminal heads. Accent gemstones like rubies and diamonds are then precision-set into the eyes, collar, and central ring.

Authentic pieces bear official makers marks, including the Lalaounis stamp or emblem, along with purity marks such as 750 or 18K. The presence of high-grade hand finishing and heavy woven wirework also distinguishes genuine items from imitations.

A textured gold chimera bangle functions as a standalone focal piece when paired with clean, minimalist attire or tailored evening wear. It can also be layered alongside smooth gold cuffs to contrast varied metalwork textures.

Clean the piece using a soft-bristled brush, mild dish soap, and lukewarm water to safely remove dust from intricate wirework and gem settings. Store the bracelet in a lined box to prevent gold abrasion and avoid contact with harsh household chemicals.
