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.

This Edwardian sterling silver pin cushion takes the form of a heeled shoe, styled with a pointed toe, a raised heel, and a decorative bow motif on the upper. Hallmarks are visible along the side of the shoe near the opening, alongside the silversmith mark for Levi & Salaman for Birmingham 1904. The interior holds a dark velvet cushion insert, contrasting with the polished silver exterior. Measuring 5 cm high, 9 cm wide, and 3 cm deep, this piece serves as a decorative accessory for a bedside table, offering a practical way to store sewing pins while adding character to a traditional interior setting.

FAQs

Popular during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, novelty silver pin cushions were functional sewing accessories crafted in decorative forms such as shoes, animals, and furniture.

These pieces feature a cast or pressed sterling silver casing fitted with a fabric cushion, typically velvet or silk, packed tightly with sawdust or wool to secure pins.

Authentic British silver items carry official hallmarks, including a makers mark, town assay symbol, lion passant indicating sterling purity, and a specific date letter.

Small novelty silver objects can be displayed on a dressing table, placed inside a glass cabinet, or layered on top of books on a side table.

Gently polish the silver surface using a soft silver-impregnated cloth, taking care to prevent liquid polish or water from coming into contact with the fabric insert.
