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

Local borough standard weights were official reference standards maintained by municipal inspectors to calibrate commercial trade scales and ensure uniform measurement practices across markets.

These sets were constructed from solid cast brass or bronze, stored inside custom-fitted wooden cases lined with velvet or cloth to prevent wear and preserve exact mass values.

Authentic pieces feature official verification stamps, municipal borough names, imperial measurement markings, and dates engraved directly into the metal surface alongside maker marks.

Display the open wooden case on a bookshelf, desk, or mantelpiece alongside leather-bound volumes and brass accoutrements to create an academic visual focal point.

Dust the surfaces gently with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh polishing chemicals that remove historical patina, and keep the wooden case away from direct sunlight or damp environments.
