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.

During the Victorian era, silver cigar boxes were produced as high-status desktop items, frequently featuring central handles, wood linings, and official silver hallmarks.

These boxes are constructed from sterling silver or silver plate, often lined internally with cedar or mahogany to assist with humidity control.

Authentic items feature British hallmarks that denote metal purity, the assay office location, the maker mark, and a specific date letter from 1837 to 1901.

A silver cigar box can be placed on an office desk, console table, or library shelf to serve as a functional decorative container for stationery or small keepsakes.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply specialist silver polish periodically, ensuring fluids do not seep into any interior wooden lining.
