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.

In the 19th century, green glass chemist jars were used by apothecaries and pharmacists to store liquid preparations, tinctures, and oils, with coloured glass selected to minimise light degradation.

Victorian apothecary jars were produced from mouth-blown or mould-blown glass, incorporating ground-glass stoppers for airtight closure and hand-applied paper or gilded labels.

Authentic pieces feature ground stopper joints, subtle surface irregularities or pontil marks, Latin chemical names on gilded labels, and wear consistent with age around the neck.

These vessels function as decorative accents when displayed on bookshelves, mantelpieces, or sideboards, particularly alongside brassware, framed prints, or leather-bound volumes.

Clean the glass surface using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, taking care to avoid water or chemical solvents on the delicate gilded label.
