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

A rocker ink blotter is a desktop tool with a curved wooden base used to absorb excess ink from fountain pens or dip pens during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Rocker blotters typically feature a curved wooden base, absorbent blotting paper attached underneath, and a top plate or handle made of cast brass, sterling silver, or timber.

Authentic Edwardian ink blotters often feature cast brass or silver-plated handles decorated with ornate scrollwork, classical motifs, and natural patination on the metal surfaces.

Display the ink blotter on a home office desk, leather blotter mat, or bookshelf alongside vintage books and brass stationery items to create a refined study aesthetic.

Dust the item with a soft cloth and clean brass surfaces gently using a non-abrasive metal polish, avoiding damp contact with the wooden base.
