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.

Novelty silver boxes shaped like coffins or distinct geometric forms gained popularity during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, frequently produced as vanity containers, pill boxes, or memento mori items.

These boxes were forged from sterling silver, consisting of 92.5 per cent pure silver alloyed with copper for structural rigidity, often incorporating hand-fitted hinges and soldered joints.

Authentic sterling silver items feature official assay office hallmarks, maker marks, and purity stamps, alongside light surface oxidisation and natural wear near the hinge or closure.

A small silver box can be positioned on a bedside table, dressing table tray, or styled on a bookshelf to add a subtle metallic accent within a curated display.

Gently buff the surface with a soft cotton cloth and specialist silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or prolonged exposure to high humidity.
