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.

A multi-strand pearl choker is a fitted necklace crafted from multiple parallel rows of pearls, typically gathered by a central jewelled motif or decorative clasp that sits close to the neck.

High-grade cultured or natural pearls are combined with precious metals such as yellow or white gold, while cameos are hand-carved from hardstones like onyx or agate and accented with brilliant-cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces from heritage jewellers feature precise makers marks, metal purity hallmarks, serial numbers, and exceptionally uniform gem setting and stone carving details.

A multi-strand pearl choker with a central motif functions as a statement piece when paired with open necklines, strapless evening gowns, or tailored modern tailoring.

Pearls require wiping with a soft cloth after wear and isolation from perfumes or chemicals, whereas hardstone cameos can be gently cleaned using a soft brush and mild soapy water.
