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.

Victorian cross lockets typically combine religious iconography with personal sentimentality, featuring a hinged compartment designed to hold small photographs or locks of hair. During the 19th century, these items were commonly crafted in high-carat gold and decorated with rose-cut or mine-cut diamonds.

Victorian lockets were frequently made from 15ct or 18ct yellow gold, rose gold, or silver-topped gold. Gemstones were hand-set, with rose-cut diamonds, pearls, and enamel being among the most common embellishments.

Authentic Victorian pieces often display hand-cut stones such as rose cuts, which have flat bases and faceted crowns. Hallmarks, makers marks, hand-engraved details, and specific hinge mechanisms typical of 19th-century manufacturing also help confirm authenticity.

Antique gold lockets are commonly worn as standalone statement pendants on fine gold chains or layered with contemporary necklaces of varying lengths and textures for a curated aesthetic.

Gold and diamond lockets should be cleaned gently using warm water and mild soap with a soft-bristled brush, avoiding full submersion if interior compartments contain non-waterproof elements. Storage in a soft cloth pouch prevents scratching from other items.
