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

An Edwardian tea caddy is a specialised container created during the early 20th century to store loose tea leaves, designed both for functional freshness and as a decorative tabletop accessory.

These items were predominantly crafted from sterling silver or electroplated nickel silver, often featuring hand-chased details, beaded rims, and cast metal handles such as lion masks.

Authentic British silver items from the Edwardian era carry official assay hallmarks detailing the silver purity mark, city of origin mark, makers initials, and a date letter corresponding to the period between 1901 and 1910.

Display the piece on a dining room sideboard, a kitchen display shelf, or a butlers tray alongside glassware to add classic metal accents to contemporary interiors.

Gently wipe down the surface with a non-abrasive soft cloth and specialised silver polish to remove oxidisation without wearing away silver plating or blurring hallmarks.
