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.

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 late nineteenth century, sporting clubs frequently commissioned custom presentation plaques and trophies to commemorate annual tournaments and presidential prizes. These pieces often featured embossed or electroformed metal relief scenes depicting the sport alongside engraved presentation details.

These items were commonly made using electrotyping or embossing silver plate over copper base metal, which was then mounted onto polished hardwood panels like mahogany or walnut for display.

Authentic period examples typically display engraved dates, makers marks or club initials, natural wear where silver plating reveals underlying copper, and period-correct fixings on timber backings.

Decorative plaques can be displayed upright on bookshelves, styled within dark wood cabinetry, or incorporated into a wall gallery alongside period prints.

Clean the metal surface gently using a soft, lint-free cloth and specialised silver polish, taking care to avoid getting liquid polish onto the surrounding timber base.
