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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

Silver photo frames gained widespread popularity during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, driven by advancements in portrait photography and die-stamping techniques. Silversmiths like William Comyns specialised in producing decorative silver frames for domestic display.

Antique silver frames typically feature a sterling silver front plate mounted onto a wooden or leatherette backing board, held upright by a folding easel leg. The interior lining commonly incorporates velvet or silk fabrics.

Authentic British sterling silver frames display full hallmark impressions, including the makers mark, lion passant for silver purity, town mark, and date letter. Genuine period pieces also exhibit historic wear on the velvet backing and wood core.

A silver heart photo frame can be placed on a bedside table, dressing table, or curated along a mantelpiece to introduce metallics into a room. Combining silver decorative objects with contemporary minimalist furniture creates a balanced, layered look.

Gently wipe the silver surface using a soft microfiber cloth and a dedicated silver polishing cream, taking care to avoid contact with the fabric interior. Keep the frame in a dry environment to minimise oxidisation and tarnish.
