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

In the 19th century, apothecary bottles were essential containers used by pharmacists and chemists to store liquid tinctures, chemical elements, and dry botanical powders. They were designed with secure stoppers to preserve the volatile ingredients from air exposure and light degradation.

These vessels were typically hand-blown or mould-blown from clear, green, or amber glass. They featured precision ground-glass stoppers or fitted painted timber caps, often finished with handwritten paper labels or reverse-painted glass inserts to identify the contents.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit slight glass imperfections, such as air bubbles, pontil marks on the base, or wear around the stopper joint. Original paper labels will show genuine age-related discolouration, surface oxidisation, and period typography or Latin naming conventions.

Apothecary bottles serve as distinctive decorative accents on open shelving, mantelpieces, or sideboard tops. Grouping them in odd numbers creates an curated visual feature suitable for transitional, traditional, or eclectic interior schemes.

Clean the glass exterior gently using a dry, soft microfibre cloth to avoid damaging fragile paper labels or gilded accents. Submerging or using harsh chemical cleaners should be avoided, as moisture can detach historical paper labels and strip original painted finishes.
