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.
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.

Originally designed in the eighteenth century for field sports and travel, solid silver hip flasks provided a compact, non-reactive vessel for carrying spirits. Their curved profile evolved to sit comfortably against the torso inside a breast or coat pocket.

Traditional hip flasks are constructed from sterling silver, comprising 92.5 percent pure silver alloyed with copper for structural durability. They frequently feature a hinged bayonet cap with a cork liner and a seamless solder construction along the body edges.

Authentic pieces display official assay office hallmarks, including the lion passant for sterling silver, a date letter, and a makers mark stamped onto the body or collar. Examining the weight, solder joints, and hinge mechanism also helps confirm genuine silver construction.

A solid silver hip flask serves as an architectural accessory when arranged on a sideboard tray, inside a glass display cabinet, or styled alongside leather-bound volumes on a bookshelf. Its reflective surface adds tonal contrast within contemporary or traditional barware displays.

Clean the exterior using a soft cotton cloth and specialised silver polish, avoiding abrasive compounds that could erode hallmarks. Rinse the interior exclusively with warm water and allow it to dry completely uncapped to prevent internal tarnish and lingering odours.
