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.

Multi-photo lockets gained widespread popularity during the nineteenth century as sentimentality and keepsake jewellery became fashionable. Designs with hinged inner leaves allowed wearers to carry several family portraits within a single compact pendant.

Rolled gold lockets were manufactured by bonding a sheet of carat gold to a core of base metal, such as brass or copper, through heat and pressure. The interior components typically feature thin metal rims or glass covers to secure photographs.

Authentic period pieces often feature maker marks, stampings such as Rolled Gold or gold filled ratios, and evidence of hand-engraving or precise engine-turning. Additional indicators include hand-fitted interior bezels and historical hand-finished hinges.

An engraved gold locket can be suspended from a fine gold chain and worn as a standalone focal piece or layered alongside modern delicate pendants. It also serves as a decorative display object on a velvet jewellery stand.

Clean the exterior using a soft, dry lint-free cloth to avoid rubbing away the gold layer. Keep the interior dry to protect enclosed paper photographs and prevent corrosion around the hinge mechanism.
