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.

Edwardian Art Nouveau silver photo frames are defined by organic contours, flowing whiplash curves, and asymmetrical structural elements popular between 1890 and 1910. Silver framing from this era frequently incorporates heart-shaped apertures, floral reliefs, and textured fabric linings.

These frames were typically crafted with a sterling silver front face mounted onto a wooden or card structure, lined with silk, velvet, or moire fabric, and secured with leatherette or easel-backed wooden supports.

Authentic British silver frames bear full hallmark impressions stamped into the silver face or border, including a makers mark, town mark, assay lion passante, and date letter denoting the specific year of production.

Silver frames can be arranged in small groupings on sideboards, mantelpieces, or bedside tables alongside contemporary ceramics and glassware to create a layered visual aesthetic across contrasting design periods.

Dust the frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and clean the metal surface using specialist silver polishing pads to clear oxidisation without exposing backing fabrics to liquid polishes.
