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.

Manufactured during the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, Edwardian silver shot glasses, often termed spirit tots or liqueur cups, were designed for serving small measures of spirits during formal dining or social gatherings.

These items were typically crafted from solid sterling silver or high-grade electroplated nickel silver, frequently featuring raised twin handles and presented in velvet and silk-lined fitted presentation cases.

Authentic British sterling silver pieces feature official assay hallmarks, including a makers mark, purity mark, town mark, and date letter denoting the exact year of manufacture between 1901 and 1910.

Display them on a silver tray within a home bar cabinet, alongside crystal decanters on a sideboard, or leave the original presentation box open on a drinks trolley for visual interest.

Clean gentle tarnish using a soft microfibre cloth and specialised silver polish, avoiding abrasive substances, and store them within their fabric-lined presentation box to prevent oxidisation.
