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.

A Georgian cut glass tea caddy is a decorative vessel crafted from heavy lead crystal during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, designed specifically to store loose tea leaves securely under lock and key.

These containers were typically produced using hand-cut flint or lead glass combined with metal fittings such as silver, silver-gilt, or brass for the rim collars, hinges, and escutcheon lock plates.

Authentic period examples demonstrate distinct weight from high lead content, hand-cut geometric pattern edges such as diamond or step cuts, and period-appropriate metal mounts featuring historical hallmarks or maker stamps.

Position the caddy on a sideboard, console table, or mantelpiece where natural light highlights the faceted glass facets, or pair it alongside period silver and glassware on a decorative tray.

Dust the exterior surface with a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth, avoid submerging the metal fittings in water, and apply specialized non-abrasive metal cleaners sparingly to the lock plate and collar.
