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 Edwardian pierced sugar basket is a footed tabletop vessel produced between 1901 and 1910, featuring a reticulated silver or silver-plated frame designed to hold a coloured glass insert for serving sugar, sweetmeats, or condiments.

These pieces were constructed by electroplating silver over a base metal frame, which was punched or pierced with decorative patterns, and fitted with a hand-blown or mould-pressed glass liner, often featuring a hinged swing handle.

Authentic period examples feature EPNS or makers stamp marks on the rim or base, subtle signs of age such as natural metal oxidisation, wear to high points showing the base metal, and hand-fitted glass inserts.

A ruby glass sugar basket can be styled on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or dining table as a decorative accent piece to introduce colour and historical texture into contemporary or classic interiors.

The glass liner should be removed and washed separately in warm, soapy water, while the silver-plated frame should be polished gently with a soft cloth and non-abrasive silver cream, avoiding full immersion.
