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

Art Deco handbags from the 1930s are characterised by structured silhouettes, clean geometric forms, and the use of natural exotic leathers. Accessories from this era frequently feature metal frame closures, decorative clasps, and gilt chain shoulder straps.

Handbags from this period were crafted from genuine reptile skins, including alligator, crocodile, and lizard, often highlighting natural hornback ridges. Metal components were typically constructed from brass, nickel, or gilt metal alloys, with fabric or suede interior linings.

Authentic vintage alligator leather displays distinct scale variations and natural texture depth, particularly along the central hornback ridge. Original period pieces also showcase hand-stitched construction, period-appropriate frame hardware, and aged metal patina.

A 1930s exotic skin handbag can be paired with tailored wool coats, structured evening wear, or minimalist modern suiting. The contrast between textured vintage leather and crisp modern fabrics creates a subtle focal point.

Preserve vintage alligator leather by storing it in a cool, dry environment away from direct heat and sunlight. Periodic application of a specialized reptile leather conditioner prevents desiccation and cracking over time.
