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

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.

An Edwardian set of eight graduated brass Troy ounce stacking standard weights in a traditional nesting cup design. The collection comprises eight individual pieces in a warm gold colour, showcasing tapered cylindrical profiles and distinct incised rim details around the larger components. Visible signs of age include surface patination, minor historical scuffs, and stamped inscriptions such as the royal cipher and council markings across the pieces. The largest weight measures 51 mm in diameter and 31 mm in height. Suitable for display on an office desk within a gentleman's library setting as an interesting desk accessory or historical scientific object.

FAQs

Troy ounce weights were traditionally used in precious metal trading, assaying, and apothecary work to measure gold, silver, and gemstone quantities accurately using a set of cup-shaped weights designed to nest within one another.

Troy weights were primarily cast from solid brass or bronze due to the density, corrosion resistance, and stability of these copper alloys during precise mass calibration.

Authentic pieces feature official verification stamps or crowned monarch ciphers stamped into the metal rim or base, showing regular re-calibration marks alongside visible turning marks from lathe production.

A set of nesting brass weights can be displayed as a decorative accent on an office desk, styled on a bookshelf, or grouped with vintage leather-bound books and scientific instruments.

Dust the metal surfaces with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes that strip away the natural age-related patina and historic verification marks.
