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

Personal toothpicks made from precious metals gained widespread popularity during the 18th and 19th centuries as luxury pocket items. They were often carried in custom cases or attached to chatelaines as symbols of status and hygiene.

While simple toothpicks were made from quill or bone, silver, gold, and nickel silver were preferred for higher-end pieces. Handles were sometimes embellished with mother-of-pearl, tortoise shell, or detailed engraving.

Authentic silver examples typically display official assay hallmarks or makers marks on the shaft or sleeve. Natural age-related oxidisation in recessed areas and hand-finished mechanical joints also indicate genuine antiquity.

Small metalwork collectibles can be styled inside glass display domes, mounted in shadow frames, or arranged on decorative vanity trays alongside other period curiosities.

Clean gently with a specialised silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish without stripping original patina. Avoid submerging internal mechanisms in water or using harsh chemical dips.
