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

Originating in the early eighteenth century during the reign of King George I, Hanoverian pattern flatware features a rounded stem terminal turned up at the front, often adorned with shell, drop, or thread motifs.

Pieces from this period were hand-forged from sterling silver, formed from silver ingots through repeated heating and hammering before hand-chasing decorative terminals and casting fork tines or spoon bowls.

Authentic pieces display British hallmark impressions, including the lion passant for sterling silver, a makers mark, a town mark, and date letter, along with characteristic hand-forged weight and natural surface wear.

Mid-eighteenth-century flatware can be displayed in velvet-lined presentation cases on a sideboard top or integrated into contemporary table settings to create contrast against modern linen and ceramics.

Silver should be washed gently in warm soapy water, dried immediately with a soft cotton cloth, and periodically polished with a specialised non-abrasive silver cream to prevent excessive oxidisation.
