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

Popularised during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, an egg cruet is a formal dining accessory designed to hold boiled eggs, spoons, and often a central salt bowl or pepper caster for breakfast service.

These sets were predominantly crafted from solid sterling silver, frequently featuring gilding inside the egg cups or salt bowls to protect the precious metal from sulfur degradation caused by egg yolks.

Authentic period pieces feature full sets of British hallmarks, including the sovereign profile, town mark, sterling purity lion, date letter, and maker initials stamped across the frame, cups, and matching spoons.

It can be displayed as a formal dining table centrepiece, arranged on a dining room sideboard, or incorporated into a contemporary kitchen island display.

Wash by hand in warm soapy water using a non-abrasive soft cloth, dry thoroughly, and periodically apply specialized silver polish to prevent tarnish build-up while preserving historical patination.
