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

Serpent motifs gained widespread popularity during the Victorian era following Prince Alberts gift of a snake engagement ring to Queen Victoria, symbolising eternal love, wisdom, and eternity.

Jewellers during the 1870s frequently combined high-carat alloys, such as 15ct gold, with carved natural gemstones including malachite, onyx, and agate.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural concentric banding in the malachite, period-appropriate hand-chased metalwork, era-specific ear wires, and standard 19th-century gold purities like 15ct.

These drop earrings serve as a focal accessory when paired with minimalist modern tailoring, black evening wear, or earth-toned silk garments that complement the green malachite.

Malachite is a soft, porous gemstone that requires gentle cleaning with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth, avoiding chemical solvents, harsh soaps, or ultrasonic cleaning devices.
