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.

Popularised during the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, berry spoons were designed specifically for serving soft fruits and berries at dessert. They typically featured heavily chased or embossed fruit motifs within the bowls to prevent fruit from sticking to the surface.

These spoons were crafted either from sterling silver or high-grade electroplated silver. The decorative patterns in the bowls were created using repousse, chasing, and hand-engraving techniques, combined with cast or stamped handle terminals.

Authentic pieces carry British assay hallmarks indicating purity, location, makers initials, and a date letter. Weight, hand-chased relief work showing minor variations, and crisp makers stamps distinguish original period pieces from modern reproductions.

Display ornate silver spoons in flatware rolls or lined trays atop a dining sideboard, incorporate them into a glass cabinet display, or use them as functional serving pieces during formal dinner service.

Wash silver spoons in warm water with mild dish soap and dry immediately with a soft cloth. Apply specialist silver polish gently using cotton wool, avoiding abrasive scrubbing to preserve delicate hand-chased surface details and preventing tarnish storage in anti-tarnish cloth.
