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

Victorian serving spoons, often designed specifically for fruit or berries, were produced throughout the nineteenth century with elaborate ornamentation. They characteristically feature embossed, repousse, or chased bowls combined with decorated stems to elevate the visual presentation of formal dining tables.

These pieces were typically forged in sterling silver or electroplated nickel silver. Decoration was applied using repousse hammering from behind, chasing details on the front, casting complex finials, and applying gilded silver coatings inside the bowls to protect against fruit acid corrosion.

Authentic items feature British hallmarks or makers marks, including a monarchs head mark for Victorian era production, a date letter, a town mark, and a makers stamp. Plated items carry specific electroplate markings such as EPNS rather than standard sterling purity marks.

Decorative spoons can be displayed inside glass-topped dining room cabinets, arranged on a brass tray upon a sideboard, or framed within shadow boxes as wall art to highlight intricate metalwork.

Wash gently in warm soapy water using a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive pads. For silver-gilt bowls, refrain from harsh chemical polishers that can strip away thin gold layers, and store pieces in anti-tarnish fabric sleeves.
