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.

Georgian wine glasses from the 18th century are typically hand-blown using lead glass, featuring varied bowl shapes such as bell, cup, or trumpet forms paired with decorated stems.

Air tears, or trapped air bubbles, were created by pricking the molten glass stem during the blowing process and drawing it out to form elongated, decorative air pockets.

Authentic Georgian pieces frequently feature pontil marks on the base, slight asymmetry from hand-blowing, a grey or purple tint inherent to early lead glass, and wear on the underside of the foot.

These historic glass pieces are commonly displayed in illuminated glass cabinets, arranged on mirrored trays atop sideboards, or positioned within open shelving displays.

Hand wash using lukewarm water and mild detergent, avoiding dishwashers, sudden temperature shifts, and abrasive cloths that could scratch the glass surface.
