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

Mid-Century jewellery from the 1950s and 1960s features geometric arrangements, frequently combining central brilliant or old-cut diamonds with structural baguette cut shoulders set in mixed metals such as yellow gold and platinum.

Rings from this era typically combine yellow gold shanks with white gold or platinum claw mounts to maximize light reflection, holding diamonds in cuts ranging from old European to tapered baguettes.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-finished claw settings, hallmarks indicating metal purity, and specific geometric shoulder arrangements such as fanned or stepped baguette settings.

A Mid-Century diamond ring functions either as an alternative engagement ring or a statement cocktail piece, contrasting with contemporary tailoring or pairing with modern fine jewellery.

Clean using lukewarm water, soft liquid soap, and a soft brush around the underside of the setting. Store separately in a velvet-lined box to prevent the diamonds from marking other items.
