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.

FAQs

An aide memoire was a small pocket notebook used by Victorian ladies suspended from a chatelaine to record notes, appointments, or dance partners at social events.

They were typically constructed using a rigid card or metal base covered in textiles such as silk or velvet, featuring stamped brass, white metal, or silver mounts and chain suspensions.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate manufacturing techniques such as hand-stamped metal ornamentation, period fasteners, and internal remnants of ivory writing tablets or vintage paper leaves.

This piece can be displayed inside a glass tabletop cabinet or mounted within a shadow box to preserve the delicate fabric while showcasing the metallic detailing.

Preservation requires keeping the item away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, maintaining stable low-humidity conditions, and avoiding harsh cleaning agents on the delicate pile.
