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.

Charms featuring playing cards and the French word Reussite (meaning success or patience) gained popularity in early to mid-20th-century France as talismans for good fortune, wealth, and favorable outcomes in games and life.

French charms of this style were typically crafted from 18ct yellow gold to meet French legal fineness standards, often decorated with cold or kiln-fired vitreous enamel to create distinct coloured motifs.

Authentic French pieces feature official hallmarks struck into the gold, such as the eagles head stamp denoting 18ct gold, alongside makers marks enclosed within a diamond-shaped frame.

Small motif charms can be worn individually on a fine gold neck chain, layered alongside other vintage pendants, or secured onto a traditional chain charm bracelet.

Clean gently using lukewarm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals that could damage or craze the surface enamel.
