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

Art Nouveau silver flatware produced between roughly 1890 and 1910 is defined by organic, free-flowing forms inspired by nature. Designs frequently incorporate stylised foliate motifs, sinuous tendrils, flower buds, and whiplash curves engraved or cast directly onto the handles and bowls.

Antique serving spoons of this era were traditionally crafted from sterling silver (925 parts per 1000). The bowls were often washed or plated with gold gilding, known as silver-gilt or vermeil, which protected the silver from corrosion caused by acidic fruits and foods.

Authenticity is verified through official hallmarks stamped on the silver, indicating the maker, purity, assay office, and date letter. Authentic pieces display Period-appropriate hand engraving or die-struck ornamentation alongside fitted presentation cases lined with velvet and silk.

Cased silver serving spoons can be displayed open on a dining sideboard or within a glass cabinet as decorative tableware. During formal meals, they serve as functional accents alongside modern porcelain and glass place settings.

Clean the silver parts gently using a soft cloth and dedicated silver polish, avoiding abrasive compounds. To preserve gold-gilt bowls, wash only in warm soapy water without scrubbing, and store the items inside their original fabric-lined presentation box to prevent oxidisation.
