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

Mettlach steins were manufactured by Villeroy & Boch in Mettlach, Germany, gaining international recognition during the late nineteenth century for their complex incised, etched, and chromolith ceramic craftsmanship.

Authentic pieces typically feature high-fired stoneware bodies decorated with underglaze colours or incised line work, complemented by a hinged pewter lid that often incorporates an inlaid ceramic medallion or sculpted thumblift.

Authenticity is verified via impressed maker marks on the underside, specifically the Mettlach abbey crest, accompanied by a four-digit shape or form number and distinct date or decor codes stamped directly into the ceramic base.

These detailed ceramic objects perform well when displayed on open kitchen dressers, inside glass-front cabinets, or grouped alongside leather-bound volumes on a study bookcase.

Wash gently by hand using warm water and non-abrasive soap, avoiding dishwashers, harsh chemical solvents, or prolonged submersion which can degrade the decorative glazes and oxidise metal fittings.
