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

During the mid-20th century, Italian designers such as Gabriella Binazzi popularised decorative sculptures combining natural marine shells with electroplated silver or brass elements, creating a distinctive fusion of natural history and modern design.

These sculptures typically feature a genuine natural seashell forming the body, paired with cast silver-plated metal or brass for the neck, head, and legs, often detailed with glass cabochon eyes.

Authentic pieces frequently bear impressed maker stamps on the metal underside, feature fine cast detail on the bird feet, and exhibit precise integration where the metal collar joins the organic shell.

Position the sculpture on a dark timber sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table alongside contemporary ceramics to accentuate the interplay between polished metal and natural texture.

Dust gently with a soft microfibre cloth, keeping chemical polishes away from the porous seashell surface, and use a specialized silver cloth exclusively on the metal parts to maintain lustre without damaging the original patina.
