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.

A Victorian silver christening set is a commemorative presentation gift typically comprising a knife, fork, spoon, or napkin ring crafted in solid silver and presented in a fitted velvet-lined case.

These sets were constructed from sterling silver bearing official assay hallmarks, and presented in leatherette or wooden cases lined with silk and velvet fabric.

Authentic British silver pieces bear assay office hallmarks, including the lion passant mark for sterling silver, a specific date letter, and a makers mark.

An open presentation case containing silver items can be styled on a sideboard top, bookshelf, or inside a glass-fronted cabinet alongside other period collectables.

Silver elements should be polished gently using a specialised silver cloth, while the fabric case lining requires storage in a dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
