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 Deco metalware from the 1920s and 1930s features geometric forms, streamlined silhouettes, and stylised human or animal figures inspired by performance art, athletic motion, and modern industrial shapes.

These items were typically cast from a base metal, such as electroplated nickel silver (EPNS) or brass, before undergoing an electroplating process to coat the sculpted figure in silver.

Authentic period pieces feature maker stamps, silver plate purity indicators such as EPNS marks, era-appropriate casting seams, and weight consistent with solid base metals.

Position them symmetrically on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or console table to create visual balance while allowing their sculpted forms to function as conversational accent pieces.

Wipe with a soft, non-abrasive cloth and use a specialized silver polish sparingly to clear oxidisation, taking care not to rub through the outer silver layer.
