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 Victorian brass bobbin stand was created as a tabletop haberdashery companion to hold spools of thread on revolving arms. It allowed needleworkers to keep thread, pins, thimbles, and small tools organised during hand-sewing tasks.

19th-century sewing stands were commonly crafted from cast and turned brass, copper, rosewood, or mahogany. Metallic examples frequently incorporated weighted base trays and cast zoomorphic finials such as birds or dogs.

Authentic 19th-century pieces display natural surface oxidisation, hand-assembled threaded joinery, and wear marks around the revolving arm mechanism. The brass typically exhibits subtle irregularities in casting consistent with period manufacturing methods.

An antique brass sewing stand functions effectively as a decorative accent on a desk, bookshelf, or sideboard tray. It can also serve as a unique holder for modern jewellery items like rings, bracelets, and neck chains.

Preserve antique brass by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth to remove surface grime. Avoid abrasive liquid polishes that strip historical patina, opting instead for gentle wax conservation if protection is required.
