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.

Bristol blue glass bottles were widely used by 19th-century chemists and apothecaries to store light-sensitive liquid preparations, syrups, and compounds, as the dark cobalt blue glass helped protect contents from light degradation.

Dust the exterior gently with a dry microfibre cloth; avoid submerging or washing original paper or hand-painted labels in water, as moisture can dissolve period adhesives and damage surface gilding.

Position the bottle on open shelving, a hallway console table, or a deep window sill where natural light can pass through the cobalt glass, or group it with other antique glass vessels for an curated accent.

Authentic examples frequently exhibit pontil marks on the base, slight irregularities or tiny bubbles within the glass, precision ground-glass necks with matching stoppers, and period Latin pharmaceutical inscriptions.

These bottles were typically mouth-blown using glass coloured with cobalt oxide, featuring ground-glass stoppers to create an airtight seal and applied paper or gilded glass shield labels designating the contents in Latin.
