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

A Miraculous Medal is a devotional pendant originating in 19th-century France, associated with Marian visions and featuring an image of the Virgin Mary surrounded by traditional prayer text.

Religious medals are traditionally struck in gold, sterling silver, or bronze using dies to create detailed low-relief figures and inscriptions.

Authentic French gold items feature official hallmarks, such as the French eagle head mark for 18ct gold, alongside maker stamps or engraver signatures in the metal.

Gold medal pendants can be worn layered on fine gold chains or displayed within fabric-lined velvet frames as part of a historical collection.

Gold jewellery should be cleaned gently using warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive compounds that could soften fine relief details.
