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 novelty cricket-themed letter rack is a decorative desktop organiser featuring miniature cricket paraphernalia such as wickets, bats, and balls designed to hold incoming and outgoing mail.

These desk accessories were typically constructed using solid cast brass, bronze, or silver plate, mounted onto polished hardwood bases such as mahogany, oak, or walnut.

Authentic pieces usually display age-appropriate patina, hand-turned or cast metal components with screw-thread fastenings beneath, and a weighted solid wood base showing gentle wear on the underside.

Place the item on an office desk, console table, or library bookshelf to add a touch of traditional character and functional organisation for stationery or postcards.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth, use a specialised wood polish for the wooden base without touching the metal, and avoid harsh chemical cleaners on the brass to maintain its natural patina.
