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

Popularised during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Art Nouveau accessories featured sinuous organic lines and naturalistic forms. Influenced by the discovery of ancient Egyptian artefacts, makers integrated scarab motifs and vivid vitreous enamelling into decorative dress accessories.

Makers typically employed gilded base metals, bronze, or silver combined with vitreous enamel techniques such as champleve or basse-taille. Accents often included mother-of-pearl, cast glass, or semi-precious stone cabochons.

Authentic pieces display distinct maker stamps, precise metal casting, and characteristically fluid whiplash curves. Genuine vitreous enamel exhibits a cool, glass-like surface with subtle age-appropriate surface wear rather than smooth modern resin.

Small antique accessories can be mounted on velvet in shallow shadow-box frames or displayed under glass cloches on dressing tables and shelving to present them as historic art objects.

Dust gently with a clean, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding chemical polishes or liquid immersions that can damage enamel edges or strip original gilded finishes.
