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

Popular in the 18th and early 19th centuries, novelty snuff boxes were portable metal or wooden containers designed in whimsical, representational shapes to store pulverised tobacco.

Georgian snuff boxes were predominantly crafted from brass, copper, silver, tortoise shell, or papier-mache, often featuring hand-soldered joints and engraved details.

Authentic early 19th-century metalwork displays evidence of hand-finishing, such as irregular hand-cut hinges, hand-engraved monograms or motifs, and natural wear to joints and high points.

Small antique metal curios can be displayed on an office desk, arranged within a glass curio cabinet, or placed atop stacked art books on a coffee table.

Clean antique copper and brass gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dust, avoiding harsh abrasive polishes that strip historical oxidisation and surface character.
