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

A helmet cream jug is a silver vessel characterised by a high looping handle, flared lip, and an urn-shaped body resting on a square pedestal base, popular during the late 18th century Neoclassical period.

These jugs were primarily crafted from sterling silver, consisting of 92.5 percent pure silver alloyed with copper for structural durability, raised by hand from a sheet of metal.

Authentic British pieces feature a full set of struck hallmarks, including a makers mark, town mark, duty mark, date letter, and the lion passant standard mark indicating sterling quality.

An antique silver cream jug can be displayed on a dining room sideboard, placed as a accent on a tea tray, or repurposed as a miniature vessel for fresh floral stems.

Clean gently with a soft cloth and specialised silver polish to remove tarnish, avoiding abrasive sponges, and store in a low-humidity environment wrapped in acid-free tissue or anti-tarnish cloth.
