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.

Edwardian silver photo frames, produced between 1901 and 1910, are recognised for their refined craftsmanship, often featuring clean polished borders, heart or oval shapes, and intricate repousse or engine-turned detailing.

These frames were generally made by pressing or hammering a thin sheet of hallmarked sterling silver over a solid wooden or leatherette easel backing, secured with glass to protect the photograph.

Authentic British sterling silver frames from 1901 feature a full set of official assay office hallmarks, including the lion passant mark for sterling silver, a town mark, a makers mark, and the date letter representing 1901.

An antique silver frame can be placed on a bedside table, desk, or mantelpiece alongside modern ceramics and books to create a balanced, layered tabletop display.

Silver frames should be gently dusted with a soft, lint-free cloth and polished occasionally using a specialized silver cloth to prevent tarnish without damaging the underlying backing material.
