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.

Novelty animal-head claret jugs and pitchers emerged in the 19th and mid-20th centuries as decorative serving vessels designed for wine, water, or spirits. Often produced by luxury metalworkers and silversmiths, these items feature detailed cast metal animal heads fitted as spouts atop glass bodies.

Mid-century Spanish barware, particularly pieces produced by Valenti, frequently combines heavy hand-blown or moulded glass with cast silver-plated or bronze mounts. The metal spouts are crafted using detailed casting techniques to recreate realistic textures such as boar bristles.

Authentic mid-century novelty decanters typically display maker stamps, origin marks, or silver purity marks along the rim, inner lip, or base of the handle. Additionally, quality pieces exhibit substantial visual weight, precise metal-to-glass joinery, and finely detailed relief work on the cast features.

Vessels of this nature work exceptionally well as focal points on a dining room sideboard, modern drinks trolley, or within a home bar display. Pairing glass decanters with metallic accessories, dark wood surfaces, or contemporary glassware creates an engaging visual contrast.

Wash the glass interior by hand using lukewarm water and mild liquid detergent, avoiding submerging the silver-plated mount. Clean the silver-plated head using a soft silver polishing cloth or mild cream polish to remove tarnish, avoiding abrasive sponges that could scratch the surface coating.
