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

Edwardian inkstands from the early 20th century frequently combine natural polished hardstones, such as onyx or marble, with fine silver mounts. They feature structured geometric forms, clean lines, and integrated pen rests designed for formal writing desks.

High-end turn-of-the-century desk sets were commonly constructed from carved onyx, marble, sterling silver, brass, and semi-precious stone inlays such as lapis lazuli or malachite, often paired with glass ink reservoir liners.

Authentic British silver-mounted pieces feature stamped hallmarks denoting the makers mark, purity mark (such as the lion passant for sterling silver), assay office symbol (such as the anchor for Birmingham), and a date letter.

An antique stone inkstand functions well as a decorative focal point on an executive office desk, console table, or library bookshelf, where its natural stone grain and metallic accents add texture to a modern setting.

Clean natural stone surfaces using a soft, damp cloth without acidic or abrasive chemical cleaners, which can etch the surface. Silver mounts should be polished carefully with a dry microfibre cloth or specialised silver polish applied sparingly to avoid stone discolouration.
