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

During the Victorian era, tea urns and samovars were designed to keep hot water ready for brewing tea in large households and during social gatherings. They featured internal chambers for heating elements or hot irons to maintain temperature throughout service.

Victorian tea urns were predominantly crafted from beaten or spun copper and brass, often featuring ceramic, bone, or wooden handle insulators to prevent heat transfer during pouring.

Authentic 19th-century examples typically exhibit hand-turned spigots, cast brass or bronze mountings, dovetail or hand-riveted seams, and natural wear or oxidisation marks on interior surfaces.

An antique copper tea urn creates a refined focal point when placed atop a wooden sideboard, dining room credenza, or kitchen island counter alongside complementary metalware or greenery.

Dust the exterior regularly with a soft cloth and polish using a dedicated non-abrasive metal cleaner to remove tarnish, ensuring non-copper fittings like handles and spigots are protected from harsh chemical contact.
