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

French religious medals, particularly from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, were produced by skilled medallists who utilised die-striking techniques to capture detailed iconography of sacred figures.

These pendants were commonly crafted from solid precious metals, including 18-carat yellow gold, silver, and bronze, often stamped with official assay hallmarks to verify purity.

Authentic period pieces usually bear French eagle head hallmarks denoting 18-carat gold, fine die-struck detail, and artist signatures integrated into the border.

Religious medallions are often worn on contemporary gold chains of varying lengths or layered with other plain gold necklaces and charms for a personalised arrangement.

Gold jewellery should be cleaned using warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft cloth or gentle brush, then stored separately in a soft pouch to avoid surface scratching.
