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.

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

Devotional pendants featuring carved mother of pearl were widely produced in France and Europe from the nineteenth century onwards. These medals combined religious iconography, such as the Virgin Mary, with decorative settings intended for daily wear.

These items typically feature carved organic mother of pearl (nacre) set within gold frames, frequently 18k or 14k gold, and may incorporate natural seed pearls set along the outer border.

Authentic French gold items bear official hallmarks, such as the eagles head stamp for 18k gold, on the bail or rim, alongside hand-carved details in the mother of pearl rather than moulded resin.

A gold religious charm can be suspended from a fine gold chain as a standalone piece or layered alongside other antique lockets and charms for a textured appearance.

Clean gently using a soft, damp cloth without harsh chemical cleaners, soaps, or ultrasonic treatments, as organic pearls and nacre are sensitive to acids and abrasion.
