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

A Victorian inkstand is a tabletop desk accessory designed to hold inkwells, pens, and sealing wax accessories. Popular during the 19th century, these items were typically crafted from exotic hardwoods, hallmarked silver, brass, or cut glass to reflect the owners status.

High-end 19th-century inkstands frequently featured exotic timber veneers such as coromandel, rosewood, and mahogany, accented with satinwood marquetry. Metal mounts were commonly made of sterling silver or gilt brass, alongside heavy lead cut-glass ink receptacles.

Authentic pieces generally display official British hallmarks on the silver components, indicating the makers mark, silver purity mark, assay office, and date letter. Additionally, period construction techniques such as hand-cut dovetails, original hand-cut glass wells, and natural patination on wood veneers indicate age.

An antique inkstand can be positioned on a contemporary executive office desk, console table, or library sideboard as a decorative accent. It functions effectively as a catch-all tray for modern fountain pens, paperclips, or small stationery items.

Dust the wood regularly with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth and polish with beeswax occasionally to protect the veneer. Clean silver mounts carefully using a dedicated silver cloth, avoiding abrasive creams that could damage adjacent wood surfaces or lacquer.
