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

Early 20th-century silver chocolate pots feature tapered or cylindrical bodies designed to retain heat, fitted with insulated wooden handles and hinged lids specifically crafted for serving hot chocolate drinks.

These vessels are typically crafted from sterling silver, stamped with hallmarks to guarantee purity, and feature carved hardwood or ebony handles to isolate heat from the metal body.

Authentic pieces carry official British hallmarks including the makers mark, town mark (such as Edinburgh or Glasgow), silver purity mark, and date letter corresponding to the specific year of manufacture.

A pair of antique silver pots can be displayed on a sideboard top, curated within a glazed cabinet, or arranged as decorative accents on a dining table.

Clean silver gently with a specialised polishing cloth or non-abrasive cream, taking care to avoid immersing organic wooden handles in water to prevent warping.
