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

Lace bobbins were small, weighted implements designed to hold and manipulate threads on a pillow during hand-knitting and weaving of bobbin lace, a craft widely practised across Europe from the sixteenth century onwards.

Bobbins were primarily turned from bone, horn, or native woods such as plum, boxwood, and applewood, featuring weighted glass or pewter bead loops attached at the tail end to provide tension.

Authentic historical bobbins typically feature slight hand-turned variations, natural age patination, hand-carved inscriptions or dot patterns, and original wire-strung glass beads serving as spangles.

These delicate textile tools can be framed in custom shadow boxes, arranged on small display stands inside glass cloches, or mounted alongside historic textile samples on shallow shelves.

Keep bobbins away from direct sunlight and high humidity, dusting gently with a soft dry brush while avoiding water or chemical cleaners that could degrade bone finishes or wire fastenings.
