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

Popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, silver menu or place card holders were designed for formal dining tables to display individual menus or guest name cards. They feature decorative motifs ranging from classical figures to sporting subjects and flora.

These items were predominantly crafted from solid sterling silver, silver plate, or sometimes combined with mother-of-pearl or enamel. High-grade sterling silver items bear official assay office hallmarks indicating purity and date of production.

Authentic British pieces bear a complete set of hallmarks, including the makers mark, town mark, standard mark (lion passant for sterling silver), and a date letter corresponding to the Edwardian era between 1901 and 1910.

Place card holders add structure to modern dinner party settings when paired with calligraphic cards. Beyond dining tables, they can be re-purposed on desks to hold business cards or small art prints.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth and a specialised silver polish to remove tarnish, avoiding abrasive pads. Store in silver-cloth bags or anti-tarnish tissue to minimise atmospheric oxidisation.
