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.

An antique silver picture frame typically dates from the 19th or early 20th century, created during prominent design movements such as the Victorian, Art Nouveau, or Edwardian eras. These frames were crafted as decorative tabletop displays, often featuring detailed silver borders pressed or hand-hammered over wood or velvet structures.

These frames were generally made from solid sterling silver or silver plate, mounted over a wooden substrate for structural support. The back typically features an easel stand covered in velvet, leather, or wood, accompanied by a glass front to protect the inserted image.

Authentic sterling silver frames feature official hallmarks indicating metal purity, the makers mark, assay office location, and date letter stamped directly into the silver. Examining the reverse side for period construction techniques, original velvet backing, and historical wear also helps verify authenticity.

Antique silver frames work effectively arranged in small clusters on sideboards, mantelpieces, or bookshelves alongside contemporary artwork. Combining varying frame sizes and profiles adds historical visual depth while complementing both classic and modern decor schemes.

To maintain silver frames, gently polish the metal surface using a soft microfibre cloth and a specialist silver polish, avoiding contact with fabric or wooden backings. Keep the item in a dry atmosphere to minimise natural oxidisation and tarnish accumulation.
