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

Wurttembergische Metallwarenfabrik (WMF) was a primary German manufacturer during the Art Nouveau era, producing decorative homeware in the Jugendstil style. Their designs combined pierced metal alloy frames with colourful glass inserts, reflecting organic foliage and feminine motifs popular at the turn of the twentieth century.

These items typically consist of a silver-plated Britannia metal or pewter alloy frame fitted with a hand-moulded or blown ruby glass liner. The metalwork was electroplated with silver, while the glass inserts featured contoured or crimped rims shaped to align with the frame.

Authentic pieces often display stamped makers marks on the feet or underside, such as the WMF ostrich emblem or letter codes denoting silver plating thickness. Period items also exhibit crisp whiplash curves, detailed relief work, and precise alignment between the glass insert and metal structure.

Position the item on a sideboard, console table, or mantelpiece where natural light illuminates the coloured glass insert. It functions effectively as a focal decorative accent or arranged alongside minimalist contemporary ceramics to highlight the structural metalwork.

Wash the glass liner separately using lukewarm water and mild liquid detergent, avoiding hot water to prevent thermal shock. Wipe the silver-plated metal frame gently with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding abrasive polishing compounds that strip electroplated surfaces.
