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.

A brass quart measure is a standardised vessel used historically in British taverns, pubs, and open markets to serve and verify liquid volumes in compliance with imperial weights and measures legislation.

They were typically cast or constructed from heavy sheet brass with soldered joints, reinforced rolled rims, and stamped verification marks applied by regional inspectors.

Authentic pieces display official verification stamps pressed into the metal, which often include a crown mark, monarch initials such as VR for Victoria, and specific inspector district numbers.

Place the item on a bookshelf, sideboard top, or mantelpiece alongside stoneware, leather-bound volumes, or modern accessories to introduce historical warmth and texture.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid aggressive chemical polishes if retaining the natural oxidisation and historical surface patina is intended.
