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

In Victorian and Edwardian symbolism, swallows represented safe return, fidelity, and affection, while floral wreaths signified everlasting love, making them popular hand-engraved motifs for sentimental keepsakes.

British lockets from the late 19th and early 20th centuries were commonly crafted from 9ct or 15ct yellow gold, utilizing hand-engraving techniques, hinged closures, and internal metal frames with glass or celluloid covers to secure photographs.

Authentic period lockets often display British hallmarks indicating gold fineness, such as 9CT or .375, accompanied by hand-engraved surface details, natural light patina, and original internal photo rims.

An antique gold locket can be styled as a focal piece on a medium-length gold chain or layered with fine contemporary chains of varied lengths to complement both modern tailoring and casual wear.

Clean the exterior metal gently using a soft, dry polishing cloth, taking care to avoid immersion in liquid cleaners or chemical baths that could damage delicate internal hinges and photo compartments.
