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.

Art Deco evening bags from the 1920s are defined by compact proportions, elaborate glass seed-bead patterns, metal mesh, and decorative kiss-clasp frames. Influenced by Jazz Age flapper fashion, these accessories often featured geometric motifs, floral themes, fringe detailing, and jewel-encrusted hardware.

These bags were typically constructed using glass seed beads, woven silk or cotton lining, German silver or nickel mesh, and stamped brass or silver-plated metal frames. Higher-end examples incorporated semi-precious gemstones, cabochons, and enamelled frame accents.

Authentic pieces generally display fine hand-strung beadwork, hand-stitched inner linings, heavy glass beads, and naturally aged metal frames. Key identifiers include period-typical kiss clasps, chain straps, micro-beaded fringing, and slight oxidisation consistent with age.

Antique purses can be mounted inside shadow box frames, displayed on brass wall hooks, placed under glass cloches, or arranged atop dressing tables and console surfaces as decorative fashion artefacts.

Store beaded bags flat in acid-free tissue paper to prevent the thread from stretching under the weight of the beads. Keep them away from moisture, extreme heat, and direct sunlight, avoiding chemical cleaning agents on delicate silk or metal elements.
