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 tazza is a shallow, saucer-shaped dish elevated on a central pedestal or foot, frequently crafted from mineral specimens such as Blue Johna form of calcium fluoride mined in Derbyshire, England, popularised for ornamental objects from the eighteenth century onwards.

Nineteenth-century tazzas were typically fashioned using carved mineral specimens, such as Derbyshire spar or polished marble, supported by turned stems and square plinths made from dark marble or slate.

Authentic pieces display natural banding ranging from deep purple and violet to yellowish, cream, and reddish tones, often exhibiting internal structural veins and historical resin stabilisations required during the turning process.

An antique stone tazza functions as a refined accent piece when displayed on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or side table, serving either as a standalone sculptural object or as a tray for small personal items.

Clean gently using a soft, dry lint-free cloth, avoiding water, harsh detergents, or chemical cleaners, as fluorite is a soft mineral vulnerable to surface scratching and liquid exposure.
