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.

A dog clip, also known as a swivel clip, is a mechanical fastener originally invented in the nineteenth century to secure pocket watches to Albert chains. Featuring a spring-loaded gate or screw mechanism, these clips allowed items to rotate freely without twisting the chain.

Antique dog clips were predominantly forged from karat gold, silver, or gold-shell pinchbeck. Higher-end pieces used 9ct, 12ct, or 15ct gold to balance durability with metal value, often incorporating steel spring mechanisms internally.

Authentic period pieces often feature hallmark stamps indicating karat purity or maker marks on the swivel stem or outer loop. Inspecting the precise machining of screw threads and hand-finished joints also helps distinguish historic craftsmanship from modern reproductions.

In modern jewellery styling, dog clips are frequently attached to gold chain necklaces to serve as charm connectors. They function as both secure fasteners and decorative focal points for suspending multiple pendants.

Clean gold clips using warm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding full submersion if the internal spring mechanism is made of steel prone to rust. Ensure the piece is thoroughly dried and apply minimal mechanical pressure to protect vintage springs and screw threads.
