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

Historically, swan-shaped cellars served as open salt dishes or condiment holders on formal dining tables, featuring silver wings that opened or were pierced to allow access to salt within the glass body.

These table accessories are constructed from hand-cut or faceted crystal glass bodies combined with cast silver or silver-plated necks, heads, and movable or pierced wing structures.

Authentic items typically bear stamped silver hallmarks or maker marks along the rim or wing underside, alongside hand-cut faceted patterns on the glass base rather than moulded seam lines.

In modern settings, these versatile items can be placed on a dressing table or vanity tray to hold jewellery, displayed on a sideboard, or used as decorative accents in a curated tabletop arrangement.

Clean the glass base using warm water and mild soap while avoiding complete immersion of the silver components, which should be polished gently with a dry silver cloth to remove oxidisation.
