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.

Georgian silver cutlery spans the period from 1714 to 1830 and is characterised by balance, classical motifs, and fine hand-engraved details or die-struck patterns such as the Shell, Thread, or Kings pattern.

These sets were constructed using high-purity sterling silver (925 standard) for the blades, tines, and handles, and were often presented in cases made of wood covered in leather or paper and lined with velvet or silk.

Authentic British Georgian silver carries a full set of official hallmarks, including the monarchs head duty mark, the lion passant for sterling purity, an assay town mark, a date letter, and a makers mark.

A boxed silver set can be displayed open on a sideboard or cabinet shelf as a decorative tabletop object, or arranged inside a glass display case to highlight historic craftsmanship.

Silver should be cleaned gently using a dedicated silver polishing cloth or a non-abrasive cream, avoiding harsh chemical dips. Store pieces in a dry location away from high humidity to prevent accelerated tarnish and oxidisation.
