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.

Silver bottle stoppers topped with sculpted animal finials, such as game birds, gained popularity in mid-twentieth-century Britain as luxury barware accessories. Premium retailers like Asprey crafted decorative silver stopper tops designed to fit spirit decanters and wine bottles for country estate entertaining.

These stoppers traditionally consist of a cast sterling silver decorative finial and mounting collar attached to a natural cork body. An internal threaded rod frequently secures the metal top directly through the centre of the cork bung.

Authentic London-made Asprey pieces feature full hallmarks stamped into the silver collar or base, including the makers mark, the leopards head town mark, the lion passant for sterling silver, and a specific date letter. The casting of the bird figures typically displays detailed feather chasing and precision finishing.

Position a pair of silver bird stoppers in vintage glass decanters displayed on a dark wood sideboard tray or a brass bar cart. They also function well as decorative objects set alongside crystal glassware within a gentlemans library or dining room cabinet.

Clean the silver section gently using a soft cloth and specialised silver polish, taking care to avoid contact with the cork. Never submerge the stoppers in water, as moisture causes natural cork to expand, degrade, and loosen from the central metal fixing.
