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.

Cataloguer’s note

Written by Sellingantiques from the dealer’s photographs and listing

  • SizeH 11.5 cm (5 in) x W 4.5 cm (2 in) x D 4.5 cm (2 in)

This unusual Edwardian silver-plated novelty egg cup dates from around 1900. The piece takes the form of a plain cup on a turned pedestal foot with a circular base, fitted with a removable pull-off cover shaped as a young bird. The upper section displays detailed chased plumage covering the head and body, alongside a small pointed beak and inset dark red glass eyes. The silver-plated metal has a reflective, polished finish throughout. The cup stands 11.5 cm high, 4.5 cm wide, and 4.5 cm deep. In a modern home, this novelty tableware piece functions practically as a breakfast egg cup with an insulating cover designed to retain heat, or serves as a decorative display item on a kitchen shelf, dining table, or sideboard. The compact proportions allow it to fit easily into traditional breakfast settings or collector cabinets displaying antique silver and novelty items.
