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.

Originally created in the Georgian and Victorian eras, guard chains or muff chains were long gold chains used to secure functional items such as muffs, pocket watches, lorgnettes, or seals to prevent accidental loss.

Guard chains produced around 1900 were commonly constructed from 9ct or 15ct yellow and rose gold alloys, featuring robust interlocking belcher or rolo links to ensure long-term durability.

Authentic period chains usually bear British assay hallmarks or makers marks on tiny tags or swivel clasps, accompanied by hand-assembled link construction and gentle surface patination.

In modern styling, long guard chains are layered multiple times around the neck as a choker or multi-strand necklace, frequently paired with swivel clasps to hold contemporary pendants or charms.

Clean 9ct rose gold chains using a soft cloth and mild soapy water, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or ultrasonic baths to preserve the structural integrity of historical links.
