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 porringer is a shallow, twin-handled silver bowl traditionally used across Europe for serving broth or cereal, and historically given as a gift to commemorate christenings or births.

Antique porringers are crafted from sterling silver, formed from metal sheet through hand-hammering before soldering cast loop handles and embossed decorative bands onto the bowl rim.

Authentic British sterling silver items feature stamped hallmarks on the body or rim, including the lion passant, town mark, date letter, and makers initials indicating the location and year of manufacture.

A silver porringer can be displayed on a sideboard top, coffee table, or open bookshelf as a standalone decorative object or used as a dish for small keepsakes.

Clean silver items gently using a specialised silver polish applied with a soft microfibre cloth, rinsing off residual compound with warm soapy water before drying completely to prevent tarnish.
