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.

These pieces are tabletop photograph displays crafted during the late Edwardian and early Art Deco periods, characterized by refined geometric engraving, engine-turned patterns, and elegant oval or rectangular silhouettes.

Frames from this era typically consist of a sterling silver or silver-plated metal fascia mounted onto a wooden or velvet backing, complete with an integrated easel stand and a glass protective front.

Authentic silver frames feature British assay hallmarks indicating the purity of the metal, town mark, and makers mark, along with engine-turned engraving that demonstrates precise machine craftsmanship of the era.

Place the frame on a marble mantelpiece, a dark wood writing desk, or a modern sideboard alongside glass vases and books to add subtle reflective warmth and metallic contrast.

Lightly dust the surface with a soft microfibre cloth and clean periodically using a silver polishing cloth, avoiding harsh liquid polishes that can seep behind the glass or erode the backing material.
