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

Antique silver meat skewers were used during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to hold joints of meat together during carving, serving both functional roles and acting as status symbols at the dining table.

Skewers were typically hand-forged from sterling silver, featuring a long, tapered blade attached to a ring or decorative crest terminal, complete with stamped hallmarks.

Authentic pieces feature official British assay marks, including a makers mark, town mark, date letter, and standard mark stamped directly onto the silver blade near the handle.

These historical implements are frequently repurposed as elegant letter openers for an office desk or displayed in shallow frames and dining room sideboards.

Maintain the finish by gently wiping with a soft microfibre cloth and applying a specialist silver polish to remove tarnish, taking care to clean gently around stamped hallmarks.
