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.

Historically worn during the 19th and early 20th centuries, a guard chain or muff chain is a long continuous length of chain, often exceeding 50 inches, originally designed to secure muff hand-warmers, lorgnettes, or pocket watches.

Edwardian guard chains were crafted using solid carat gold alloys, such as 9ct or 15ct, featuring uniform links like curb, belcher, or trace patterns, joined to a swivel clasp or dog clip fastener.

Authentic period chains feature hallmark stamps on the dog clip, end rings, or attached metal tags indicating gold purity, maker marks, and assay office symbols, along with characteristic hand-finished links and wear patterns.

Due to the long continuous length, an antique guard chain can be looped two, three, or four times around the neck to form a layered necklace, with the attached dog clip displaying pendants, lockets, or charms.

Clean gently using warm water, mild liquid soap, and a soft-bristled brush before rinsing and drying thoroughly with a lint-free cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, chemical solvents, or harsh abrasive polish.
