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.

Cataloguer’s note

Written by Sellingantiques from the dealer’s photographs and listing
  • Period19th century

This Victorian solid sterling silver travelling shaving brush is a functional antique vanity accessory. The piece displays a metallic silver colour with grey and brown bristles, featuring intricate engine-turned texturing on the cylindrical exterior alongside a family crest and initials, plus smooth polished metal sections at the sliding joints and brush collar. It measures approximately 15.5 cm tall fully assembled. Today, this sliding shaving brush fits into a traditional gentleman's grooming routine or sits as a decorative display item on a vanity table or bathroom shelf. It functions as a compact personal care tool that telescopes to protect the bristles when travelling.
