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

Preserve the finish of high-karat gold by cleaning it gently with warm soapy water and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can damage textured surfaces.

A gold zodiac charm can be worn individually on a delicate trace chain for a minimalist look or layered with other vintage chains and medallions for a curated, eclectic aesthetic.

Authenticity is verified by examining official French hallmarks, such as the eagles head for 18k gold, alongside makers marks and signature stylistic engraving techniques specific to the designer.

Authentic vintage pieces from this era are typically constructed from 18-carat or 18-karat yellow gold, sometimes featuring textured finishes, brushed surfaces, or contrasting polished details.

French zodiac charms gained immense popularity in the mid-20th century, often crafted by renowned Parisian ateliers and jewellery houses using high-karat gold to celebrate personal astrology.
