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

Gothic Revival metalwork draws inspiration from medieval architectural elements, incorporating motifs such as trefoils, tracery, twisted columns, and cabochon gemstone accents popularised during the Victorian era.

These items were primarily cast or wrought in brass or bronze, often featuring lathe-turned components, hand-engraved surface patterns, and inset semi-precious stones or glass cabochons.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit signs of age such as hand-finished seams, weighted or hollow-cast bases with period turning marks, natural surface oxidisation, and period-appropriate gem-setting techniques.

Place a pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard, or dining table alongside contemporary ceramics or dark wood accents to create visual contrast and historic depth.

Wipe gently with a soft microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical polishes near the inset stones, and remove residual wax using warm water rather than direct heat.
