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 rim lock is a surface-mounted mechanical locking device secured directly to the face of a door, widely crafted by blacksmiths throughout the Tudor and Elizabethan eras.

Early English door locks were constructed primarily from hand-forged wrought iron, featuring internal sliding bolts, iron springs, and keyways shaped using basic hand tools.

Authentic period locks display irregular hand-hammered surface textures, hand-cut threads or rivets, asymmetrical forge marks, and a naturally developed dark surface patina.

Historic hardware pieces are frequently mounted on bespoke timber stands for display on shelving, placed within curio cabinets, or re-installed on reclaimed timber doors.

Maintain historical ironwork by keeping it in a dry environment, removing dust with a soft brush, and applying a light coat of microcrystalline wax to prevent oxidisation.
