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

During the late Victorian period, small silver containers such as pill, trinket, and patch boxes became popular personal accessories and vanity items, often decorated with elaborate scrollwork and symbolic motifs.

These boxes were typically constructed from sterling silver using repousse, chasing, and engraving techniques to create raised floral patterns and detailed relief artwork.

Authentic pieces feature official British hallmarks stamped into the metal, including a makers mark, town mark, date letter, and the lion passant symbol indicating sterling silver purity.

Small silver boxes function well as decorative accents on bedside tables, dressing tables, or layered atop books on a coffee table or sideboard.

Clean gently using a soft, lint-free cloth and a specialised silver polish, avoiding abrasive compounds that could wear down delicate embossed details or strip natural oxidisation from recessed areas.
