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.

Maori carved bone pendants, frequently portraying spiritual figures such as the Hei Tiki or Manaia, represent ancestral heritage, lineage, and cultural identity within Indigenous New Zealand traditions.

Traditional Maori carved pendants are crafted from animal bone or whale bone, often embellished with iridescent paua shell inlay to highlight the eyes of figurative designs.

Authentic pieces from the early 20th century exhibit hand-carved tool marks, natural surface patination or subtle yellowing of the bone, and flush paua shell inlays set into precise recesses.

A carved bone pendant can be suspended on a minimalist dark leather cord or fine chain, offering a distinct focal point for both casual and modern tailored wardrobe styling.

Bone jewellery should be kept in a climate-controlled environment away from direct heat and excessive humidity to prevent warping. Clean gently using a dry, soft cloth without water or harsh chemicals.
