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.

Royal investiture jewellery consists of commemorative items produced to mark formal ceremonies, such as the 1969 Investiture of the Prince of Wales at Caernarvon Castle. These pieces were created by British jewellers in limited quantities to celebrate royal milestones and were often stamped with special hallmarks or dates.

During the mid-20th century, commemorative lockets were predominantly produced in 9ct yellow gold, sterling silver, or gold plate. High-grade examples feature machine-engraved architectural details, precise lettering, and robust suspension loops for chain attachment.

Authentic pieces bear official British hallmarks indicating the purity of the gold, such as 375 for 9ct gold, alongside an assay office mark and date letter. Engraved details, crisp lettering, and solid hinges or closures further confirm original manufacture.

Small precious metal items such as medallions and lockets can be displayed inside velvet-lined shadow boxes or mounted within glass dome frames. Alternatively, they can be styled alongside antique desktop accoutrements or placed on decorative tray surfaces.

To clean 9ct gold lockets, wipe gently with a lint-free polishing cloth specifically designed for precious metals. Avoid immersion in water or chemical cleaners if internal photographic compartments or delicate mechanisms are present.
