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.

Paua, a species of abalone native to New Zealand waters, has been harvested for centuries for its vibrant nacre shell. In 20th-century jewellery design, goldsmiths began mounting segments of polished paua shell into gold settings to create striking geometric and floral studs.

These earrings are crafted using 9ct gold for the outer frame, posts, and scroll backs, combined with cut pieces of natural paua shell nacre. The shell sections are secured into precise inlaid channels within the cast or stamped gold setting.

Authentic 9ct gold pieces feature British hallmarks or makers marks indicating fineness, such as 375. Genuine paua shell displays a multi-dimensional, organic shift in hue ranging from deep blue to turquoise and green, unlike uniform plastic or resin imitations.

Fine jewellery pieces like shell studs are often incorporated into dressing table vignettes, placed inside velvet trinket dishes, small glass display domes, or brass jewellery trays to add texture and subtle colour to a bedroom or dressing area.

Clean the gold frame with a soft, lint-free polishing cloth. Because natural shell nacre is porous, avoid submersing the earrings in harsh chemicals, liquid cleansers, or ultrasonic cleaners, and protect them from direct contact with perfumes or hairsprays.
