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.

A jambiya is a traditional curved dagger worn as a status symbol and cultural accessory by men in Yemen and regions across the Arabian Peninsula.

These items typically feature forged steel blades paired with hilts and scabbards crafted from silver, brass, horn, or wood, decorated using repousse and filigree metalworking techniques.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-hammered detailing, age-appropriate oxidisation within crevices, and traditional geometric or floral motifs distinct to specific regional silversmithing traditions.

Framed daggers and tribal objects serve as focal points when mounted on accent walls, integrated into gallery walls, or displayed above console tables in contemporary or eclectic spaces.

Keep the display frame sealed to minimise exposure to humidity and atmospheric dust, and clean the glass exterior using a dry microfibre cloth rather than liquid sprays.
