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.

Grape shears are specialised dining utensils designed to cut small branches from a cluster of grapes without crushing the fruit or dislodging adjacent grapes during dessert or wine service.

Traditional grape shears are constructed from solid sterling silver (925 purity) or silver plate, often featuring steel insert blades or reinforced pivots to maintain sharp cutting edges through repeated use.

Authentic pieces carry British assay office hallmarks denoting the silver standard, makers mark, location symbol, and date letter stamped into the silver body.

Silver grape shears are traditionally placed beside a fruit bowl or dessert platter on a sideboard or table centrepiece to serve guests during formal dining.

Wipe silver grape shears with a soft damp cloth after contact with fruit acids, dry thoroughly, and polish periodically using a dedicated silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish while preserving detailed relief work.
