Strictly Vetted Dealers

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

Art Nouveau jewellery created between the late 19th and early 20th centuries emphasizes organic lines, botanical forms, and decorative enamelling. Plique-a-jour is a technique where vitreous enamel is applied within open metal cells without a backplate, creating a translucent stained-glass effect.

Artisans constructed these brooches using high-karat yellow and rose gold frameworks, backless vitreous enamel, rose-cut diamonds, and natural pearl drops or seed pearls.

Authentic period pieces display asymmetrical whiplash curves, nature-inspired subjects like flowers or insects, hand-set gemstones, and fine hand-finished metalwork without modern laser welds.

An antique brooch can be styled by pinning it to a coat lapel, fastening a silk scarf, securing a velvet ribbon as a choker necklace, or decorating a structured evening blazer.

Preserve plique-a-jour enamel by storing it flat in a velvet-lined box, avoiding exposure to liquids, direct heat, or ultrasonic cleaners, and gently wiping the gold with a clean microfibre cloth.
