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.

Gowns from the early to mid-nineteenth century often featured defined waistlines, full gathered skirts, and distinctive sleeve silhouettes such as gigot or padded sleeves, tailored primarily from silk taffeta or woven fabrics.

Antique dresses were typically constructed using natural silk, linen, cotton, or wool textiles, structured internally with whalebone or cane boning and fastened with metal hooks, eyes, or ribbon ties.

Authentic period gowns feature hand-sewn interior seams, historical stitch patterns, period-appropriate fastenings, and evidence of hand-pleating or natural fibre wear around hemlines and underarms.

An antique dress can be mounted on a tailors dummy or museum mannequin to serve as a sculptural textile element in a dressing room, hallway, or study.

Keep antique silk flat in archival acid-free boxes lined with acid-free tissue paper, stored in a climate-controlled environment away from direct sunlight, pest risks, and excess humidity.
