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.

Mourning lockets and watch fobs from the Georgian and Victorian eras were personal accessories designed to hold locks of hair, miniature portraits, or photographs in memory of a deceased individual.

These pieces were typically crafted using yellow gold, rolled gold, or pinchbeck, often incorporating hand-engraved borders, engine-turned patterns, and protective glass panels.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved or engine-turned decorative borders, period-appropriate loop suspension mechanisms, and glass compartments designed to enclose hair or miniature artwork.

Small antique fobs can be mounted inside shadow boxes alongside historical paper ephemera, displayed under glass domes on decorative stands, or repurposed as wearable pendants on contemporary chains.

Clean gently using a soft, lint-free microfibre cloth to remove surface residue, avoiding liquid cleaners or immersion in water which could breach the glass seal and alter internal contents.
