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

Popularised during Queen Victorias reign due to her affection for Balmoral Castle, Scottish agate jewellery features native polished stones mounted into metalwork or pinchbeck frames.

These pieces typically utilise locally sourced hardstones, agates, bloodstones, and quartz set in sterling silver, low-carat gold, or pinchbeck, which is a brass alloy formulated to resemble gold.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut natural stone inclusions, unrefined backings, period-appropriate long pin stems extending beyond the frame, and simple C-clasp closures.

An antique brooch can be positioned on a coat lapel, attached to a heavy wool hat, pinned to a knitted scarf, or used to secure a cardigan collar.

Clean gently using a dry, soft cloth, avoiding immersion in water, chemical cleaners, or ultrasonic devices that could loosen claw settings or tarnish pinchbeck metal.
