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

Glass seed beads were introduced to Indigenous North American tribes through trade with European merchants in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, replacing traditional quillwork and shell beads in many decorative items.

Craftspeople traditionally utilised glass trade beads, sinew or cotton thread, and brain-tanned deer or buffalo hide to construct durable decorative strips and garments.

Authentic historical pieces often feature subtle irregularities in glass bead size, natural hide backing showing age-related patination, and traditional stitching techniques such as lazy stitch or spot stitch.

Small beadwork strips can be framed in museum-grade shadow boxes and mounted on neutral gallery walls or displayed inside glass-topped collector tables.

Store and display the item away from direct sunlight and humidity, dusting lightly with a soft brush, and avoid applying liquid conditioners or water to the delicate hide and glass beads.
