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

Jewellery from the 1950s often features clean geometric lines combined with classic gemstone cuts, transitioning from the heavy Art Deco period to lighter, elegant linear designs set in white precious metals.

These pieces are commonly crafted in platinum or white gold, incorporating claw-set natural aquamarines and channel-set baguette-cut diamonds for structural durability and light reflection.

Look for hallmark stamps indicating metal purity, precise hand-finishing on setting backs, authentic gemological cuts such as baguette or brilliant cuts, and period-appropriate post or screw fittings.

Linear gemstone drop earrings provide a refined accent to both minimalist evening wear and tailored day suits, adding subtle colour and historic craftsmanship to contemporary attire.

Clean gently using warm water, mild detergent, and a soft-bristled brush, ensuring settings are checked periodically by a jeweller to secure precious stones.
