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

Cranberry glass, created by adding gold chloride to molten glass, was popularised in the 19th and early 20th centuries. These small boxes frequently featured sterling silver lids and enamel decoration for use on vanity tables.

Glassmakers formed the vessel using hand-blown or molded glass, often adding hand-painted enamel ornamentation. Silversmiths then fitted custom sterling silver collars and lids, which were stamped with official assay hallmarks.

Authentic pieces feature British hallmarks stamped into the silver, including the town mark (such as an anchor for Birmingham), the lion passant indicating sterling purity, and a specific date letter corresponding to 1922.

Place the item on a marble tray atop a bathroom vanity, on a bedroom dressing table, or alongside stacked books on a bedside table to introduce subtle colour and historical texture.

Wipe the glass gently with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals or submerging in water to protect the hand-applied enamel. Clean the silver lid using a dedicated silver polishing cloth without touching the painted glass.
