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.
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.
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.

A vesta case is a small portable container specifically created to store friction matches, commonly known as vestas, which were popular during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Vesta cases were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, brass, or nickel, featuring a spring-loaded hinged top cover and an integrated serrated strike plate on the base.

Authentic British pieces bear official silver hallmarks, including a lion passant mark for silver purity, an assay town mark, a date letter, and a registered makers mark.

A silver vesta case functions well as a decorative desk accessory, placed within a styled tray on an office desk, or displayed inside a glass shadow box among other metal curiosities.

Clean gently using a soft cotton cloth and a specialised silver polishing compound, taking care not to rub excessively over deep engraving or compromise delicate hinge mechanisms.
