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.
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.
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.

Emerging in the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, novelty silver pin cushions were produced in imaginative shapes such as animals, shoes, and boats to serve both functional sewing purposes and as decorative desktop curios.

These items typically consist of a cast or stamped sterling silver body fitted with a textile-filled interior, often velvet or wool, designed to hold steel sewing pins securely.

Authentic British pieces display complete hallmark sets stamped into the metal, including the makers mark, town mark such as an anchor for Birmingham, lion passant for sterling quality, and a date letter.

Small decorative silver items function well arranged on a dressing table tray, curated inside a glass display cabinet, or styled alongside books on a shelf.

Metal surfaces should be lightly wiped with a soft silver cloth, taking care to avoid getting polish or liquids on the original fabric cushion insert.
