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

During the Edwardian era, telegram folders served as decorative, protective covers for telegram pads or message forms stored on writing desks in affluent households.

These items generally featured a hallmarked sterling silver front plate ornamented with repousse or chased designs, mounted onto a leather, wood, or fabric-lined backing.

Authentic British silver from this era bears full hallmarks stamped into the metal, including the lion passant for sterling quality, an assay office mark, a date letter, and a makers mark.

Place the folder flat or resting upright on an office desk, library bookshelf, or console table as a decorative silver accent.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and polish silver surfaces using a specialized silver cloth, avoiding liquid cleaners on non-metallic components.
