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 Victorian sterling silver tea caddy is a lockable metal container crafted during the 19th century specifically designed to store and preserve valuable loose tea leaves.

They were constructed from solid sterling silver, often decorated with hand engraving, fluting, cast lion mask drop handles, and turned wooden or ebonised finials.

Authentic examples bear official British hallmarks denoting silver purity, the assay office mark, date letter, and makers mark, alongside period-appropriate lock mechanisms.

Positioned on a dining sideboard, coffee table, or drinks tray, an antique silver caddy serves as an elegant accent piece that adds metallic texture and historical interest.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth and a specialised silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals, excessive moisture, or abrasive pads that could wear down delicate engraving.
