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.

Art Deco silver trays from the 1930s are distinguished by clean geometric forms, octagonal or cut-corner profiles, and stepped border mouldings. Unlike earlier Victorian or Edwardian designs that featured intricate engraving, Art Deco pieces emphasize minimalist surfaces, polished mirror finishes, and streamlined handles.

Trays from this period were predominantly crafted from sterling silver or electroplated nickel silver (EPNS). EPNS items feature a base alloy of copper, nickel, and zinc coated with a layer of pure silver via electrolysis, offering substantial durability and weight.

Authentic pieces carry stamped makers marks, hallmark symbols for solid silver, or maker initials alongside EPNS for silver plate. Look for geometric proportions, cast angular handles, and crisp stamped maker details associated with established English silversmiths.

A silver drinks tray functions as a structured base on a sideboard, drinks trolley, or ottoman. Anchor the layout by arranging crystal decanters, glassware, or small decorative brass accessories within the tray frame.

Clean silver plate using a soft, non-abrasive cotton cloth and specialised silver polish formulated to remove oxidisation without stripping the thin silver layer. Avoid harsh detergents, abrasive sponges, or dishwashers, and dry thoroughly after washing.
