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.

This Victorian collection of medical and surgeons equipment originates from Maw & Sons of London and sits upon a warm brown mahogany chest fitted with cast-brass drawer handles and decorative brass backplates. The assemblage includes a gold-coloured brass-barreled syringe resting inside a timber case lined with purple velvet, alongside other fitted wooden cases containing instruments crafted from steel and bone. Additional items feature green and blue velvet-lined boxes holding specialized tools, a bulbous leather-covered item with a white nozzle, and a tall tapering wooden container. The timber boxes display visible grain and hardware, including metal latches and hinges showing age and wear consistent with historic medical practice. While exact dimensions are not specified, the collection occupies a substantial portion of the upper surface of the chest. Placed today in a gentleman's library or study, this historical collection serves as a fascinating display piece on a bookshelf or desk, offering a tangible link to nineteenth-century medical history.

FAQs

Victorian surgical equipment typically features hand-crafted instruments made from steel, brass, and bone, housed within velvet-lined mahogany or oak fitted cases produced by specialised medical instrument makers.

Instruments were commonly fabricated from forged steel, nickel-plated metal, or brass, with handles constructed from ebony, bone, or ivory, stored in timber cases lined with silk velvet.

Authentic pieces often feature maker stamps from established firms such as Maw & Sons, detailed fitted compartments tailored to individual tools, and signs of age such as minor oxidisation or wear to the velvet lining.

These sets are typically displayed open within glass cabinet showcases, on study shelving, or arranged on mahogany desks within traditional or dark academia interior schemes.

Keep the items in a climate-controlled environment away from humidity to prevent steel rust and wood warping, and clean metal elements gently with microfibre cloths without abrasive chemicals.
