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

Silver christening sets emerged as traditional commemorative gifts in the nineteenth century, given by godparents to symbolise prosperity and good fortune for a child.

These sets commonly feature sterling silver blades, prongs, and handles, often housed within silk- and velvet-lined fitted presentation boxes for protection.

Authentic British pieces feature official hallmark stamps indicating the silver purity mark, assay office mark, makers mark, and date letter corresponding to the exact year of manufacture.

The open presentation case can be styled flat on a sideboard, displayed inside a glass cabinet, or arranged on a bookshelf alongside other antique silver collectables.

Gently polish silver items with a specialized microfibre cloth to remove tarnish, and store them within a lined case away from moisture to slow oxidisation.
