Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A silver sugar basket is a small decorative table vessel constructed with an openwork frame, a moveable arched handle, and often fitted with a colourful glass liner used to serve sugar or sweetmeats.

These items are crafted from sterling silver or silver plate and are commonly fitted with cobalt blue, green, or ruby glass inserts designed to protect the metal from acid corrosion.

Authenticity is verified by checking for official assay office hallmarks, a purity mark such as the lion passant, a date letter, and a makers mark stamped into the metal frame or handle.

Place the basket on a dining room sideboard, position it centrally on a console table, or utilize it as a refined vanity dish for small jewellery items.

Remove the glass liner to wash it separately in warm soapy water, and clean the silver structure using a soft silver polishing cloth without applying liquid polish into the pierced gaps.
