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

Victorian balance scales were precision measuring instruments utilised by apothecaries, merchants, and grocers to weigh goods against standardized counterweights.

These instruments were commonly constructed from cast iron or turned metal pillars, paired with solid brass balance beams and brass or copper pans.

Authentic period scales often feature stamped maker marks, brass verification stamps on the beam, hand-turned detailing, and natural patination across the metal surfaces.

Balance scales function effectively as decorative accent pieces on a kitchen island, sideboard, or mantelpiece, occasionally displaying small curiosities or dried botanicals within the pans.

Preserve the surfaces by dusting regularly with a dry, soft cloth while avoiding harsh chemical solvents that strip historical patination and protective finishes.
