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.

During the 19th century, large riveted copper vessels, often referred to as coppers or wash boilers, were primarily utilised in domestic sculleries, laundries, and breweries for heating large quantities of water.

These pieces were crafted from heavy-gauge copper sheets, rolled into cylindrical or tapered shapes and joined together using hand-hammered rivets along overlapping seams.

Authentic period examples feature irregular hand-hammered rivets, lap-jointed seams, thick wall construction, and natural verdigris or aged oxidation from decades of exposure and use.

These vessels are commonly repurposed as fireside log stores, large indoor statement planters, or striking architectural decorative elements in entryways and garden rooms.

To preserve the natural verdigris finish, avoid abrasive cleaners or polish, dusting instead with a dry soft brush and applying a light coat of clear microcrystalline wax if moisture protection is required.
