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

Bohemian opalescent glass refers to nineteenth-century decorative glassware produced in the Bohemia region, characterised by its translucent, milky appearance that reflects light with subtle colour shifts.

These bottles were mouth-blown using glass formulations containing bone ash or fluoride compounds to achieve opalescence, then decorated with hand-applied enamel paints and fired gold leaf accents.

Authentic period pieces frequently feature ground glass stoppers custom-fitted to the neck, hand-painted details showing age-consistent wear, and polished pontil marks on the base.

Display small scent bottles on a marble vanity tray, within a glass display cabinet, or arranged alongside silver dressing table accessories on a bathroom counter.

Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding warm water immersion, chemical detergents, or scrubbing, which can lift surface gilding and enamel decoration.
