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.

Edwardian novelty desk clips are functional desktop stationery items produced during the early 20th century, frequently featuring sporting, animal, or whimsical themes designed to hold loose papers or letters.

These items typically combine hallmarked sterling silver decorative elements with a solid hardwood base, such as oak or mahogany, attached via a spring-loaded metal mechanism.

Authentic pieces carry British hallmarks detailing the maker, silver purity standard, assay office, and a specific date letter corresponding to the reign of King Edward VII.

Place the clip on an executive desk, console table, or study bookshelf to securely display business cards, small artwork, or daily correspondence.

Polish the silver sections using a soft microfibre cloth and specialized silver polish while taking care to keep liquid cleaning agents away from the wooden base.
