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

An antique silver centrepiece bowl is a decorative dining vessel produced during the 18th and 19th centuries, crafted to hold fruit or flowers at the centre of a formal dining table.

These items were crafted from sterling silver or high-grade silver alloys using metalworking techniques such as casting, repousse, chasing, and fluting to create detailed naturalistic motifs.

Authentic items bear official hallmarking stamps indicating silver purity, city of assay, makers initials, and a date letter, usually stamped on the base or lower edge.

A silver centrepiece can be placed at the centre of a dining table or console, displayed either empty as a sculptural highlight or filled with decorative objects.

Maintain solid silver by wiping with a soft cotton cloth and using non-abrasive silver polish to clear oxidisation, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners.
