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.

This pair of Edwardian sterling silver roller skate pin cushions displays realistic laces, brogue toe caps, and four working wheels underneath each boot. The polished silver reflects light across the curved uppers, contrasting with the dark green velvet fabric inserted into the ankle openings to hold pins. Each skate stands 5 cm high, measures 7 cm wide, and extends 2.5 cm deep. Placed on a bookshelf or desk, these silver novelties serve as both functional sewing accessories and decorative ornaments in a modern study or dressing area. The miniature hardware, articulated wheels, and textured leather-style details create a playful yet refined Edwardian aesthetic suited for display among books or trinkets.

FAQs

During the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, silversmiths began crafting small domestic objects and sewing accessories in whimsical forms, including animals, footwear, and vehicles. These novelty silver items served as both functional sewing tools and decorative conversation pieces for haberdashery work.

These items were predominantly constructed from sterling silver shells formed through stamping or casting, hallmarked according to British standards. The pincushion inserts were typically made from dense velvet or silk velvet stuffed with sawdust or wool to secure needles safely.

Authentic pieces feature official British hallmarks denoting the maker, silver purity, assay office location, and date letter corresponding to the Edwardian period (19011910). Original fabric inserts often show minor age-consistent wear where pins were historically inserted.

Small novelty silver objects can be styled on a bookshelf, dressing table tray, or inside a glass curio cabinet alongside complementary period objects. Their small scale makes them suitable accent pieces for desktop displays or vignette arrangements.

Maintain the silver surface using a soft, non-abrasive cotton cloth and specialized silver polish, taking care to avoid contact with the fabric cushion. Keep the item in a dry environment to prevent tarnishing and to protect the internal velvet from moisture damage.
