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.

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.

Arts and Crafts metalwork arose in the late nineteenth century as a reaction against industrial mass production, emphasising hand craftsmanship, honest construction, and visible joinery such as rivets or straps. Caskets from this era frequently combine hand-beaten steel, pewter, or copper with decorative enamel panels depicting medieval, mythical, or nature-inspired imagery.

Craftsmen used hand-worked base metals including steel, iron, copper, and pewter, often treated with patination or oxidation for depth. Decorative plaques were typically rendered in cloisonne or champleve enamel, where glass paste was fused to metal cells or recessed cavities at high temperatures.

Authentic pieces display hand-hammered textures with slight surface irregularities, hand-cut metal plates, and exposed functional rivets or hinges rather than hidden modern fasteners. Enamel panels show hand-applied wirework or depressions consistent with period techniques, and pieces may carry maker marks from guild workshops or individual artisans.

Positioning the casket on a wooden sideboard, desk, or bookcase allows its metallic texture and colourful enamel details to function as a focal point. Pairing it with stone, dark timber, or leather accents enhances its historical motif within contemporary or traditional schemes.

Dust the metal and enamel surfaces regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh liquid polishes or chemical cleaners that can damage patinated metal surfaces or loosen enamel infill. Keep the object in a climate-controlled room away from high humidity to prevent oxidation of exposed steel.
