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.

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

During the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, silversmiths produced functional novelty items shaped like animals, vehicles, and figures. Silver pin cushions featuring forms such as frogs, pigs, and birds served as functional desktop and sewing accessories.

These items typically feature a cast or stamped sterling silver body filled with weighting material or plaster, fitted with a velvet or plush fabric pad to hold sewing pins securely.

Authentic British silver items carry official hallmarking, including a makers mark, town mark such as the anchor for Birmingham, metal purity mark representing sterling silver, and a date letter denoting the year of manufacture.

Small silver novelties function as decorative accents on dressing tables, mantelpieces, or styled within a bookshelf arrangement, adding metallic texture and historical detail.

Clean the silver surfaces using a soft cloth and specialized silver polish, ensuring liquid chemicals do not make contact with or damage the fabric cushion insert.
