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

Wax seals were traditionally used to secure personal correspondence and legal documents by pressing an impression into melted wax prior to the introduction of gummed envelopes in the mid-19th century.

These items were typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as ebony, boxwood, or fruitwood, paired with turned brass or bronze matrix faces featuring engraved crests or textured grid patterns.

Authentic examples display subtle variations from lathe-turning, natural surface patina on the wooden handles from repeated handling, and slight oxidisation on the metal stamp face.

Small desktop antiques can be arranged on an office desk alongside stationery, displayed within a glass curio cabinet, or placed on a bookshelf as tactile decorative accents.

Maintain the wood by applying a small amount of clear beeswax polish with a soft lint-free cloth, while keeping the brass face clean with a dry brush to prevent dust build-up.
