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.

An antique silver cruet set is a collection of small functional vessels designed to hold condiments such as salt, pepper, mustard, or vinegar for dining service. Popular during the Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian periods, these sets often featured pierced silver frames holding glass liners.

Cruet sets were typically constructed from sterling silver or silver plate, often fitted with dark cobalt glass or clear glass liners to protect the metal from salt corrosion. Crafting methods included hand-chasing, casting, machine piercing, and soldering.

Authentic items feature official assay office hallmarks or makers stamps indicating purity, location, and production date. Additional indicators include hand-finished piercing, original glass liners, and subtle wear patterns on hinges or solder joints.

Position the set on a dining sideboard, inside a glazed display cabinet, or on a tray as part of a formal table layout. Contrast the polished metalwork against dark wood surfaces or matte ceramic dishware.

Polish the silver surfaces using a specialized soft cloth and non-abrasive cream polish to prevent oxidisation. Wash glass liners separately using warm soapy water and ensure all components are completely dry before reassembling.
