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.

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

Scissor-style candle snuffers, popular during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, were designed to trim burning wicks and extinguish flames safely without splattering wax or creating excess smoke.

These implements were typically crafted from sterling silver, silver plate, or brass, and often featured internal spring mechanisms, hinged box receptacles to catch trimmed wicks, and pointed tips for wick adjustment.

Authentic Georgian examples feature period hallmarks denoting the maker, silver purity, assay office, and date letter, alongside hand-finished joinery and characteristic scissor-action construction.

Display the snuffer alongside classical silver candlesticks on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or desk tray to add historical depth and metallic contrast to modern tabletop arrangements.

Gently polish the silver surface with a specialised silver cloth or soft cotton rag and mild polish, ensuring working spring joints remain dry and free from residual chemical cleaners.
