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.

Victorian sterling silver flatware frequently features relief decoration, detailed engraving, and substantial weighting, reflecting nineteenth-century dining customs and manufacturing techniques.

Forks from this era were struck or cast from sterling silver, an alloy composed of 92.5 per cent pure silver and 7.5 per cent other metals, usually copper, to provide structural strength.

Authentic items bear full British hallmarks stamped into the metal, including the Sheffield crown mark, the lion passant indicating sterling purity, and a date letter signifying the year of production.

Antique silver forks can be paired with modern ceramic tableware and neutral linens to create textural contrast on contemporary dining tables.

Silver should be washed by hand in warm water with mild dish detergent, dried immediately with a lint-free cloth, and periodically treated with a specialised silver polish to remove oxidisation.
