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 vintage wine bottle holder from 1950 takes the form of a miniature sleigh, complete with curled scrollwork runners at both ends and an open wirework frame. Produced by the Belgian silversmith Wiskemann, the piece is formed from silver plate with a bright silver finish and includes a top retaining clip designed to secure a standard champagne or wine bottle by the neck. The silver-plated frame incorporates curved side supports and a handle element at the rear, resting on a pair of parallel metal runners. Length: 29 cm. Width: 10 cm. Height: 19.5 cm. Suitable for display on a sideboard top or dining table during festive gatherings, this bottle carrier serves as both a functional pourer and a decorative table accessory. The construction allows a standard bottle to rest securely within the wire cradle while the handle remains accessible for serving wine. The maker's marks appear on the base, confirming the Belgian origin and mid-20th-century period of manufacture.

FAQs

A wine bottle cradle is engineered to hold a wine or champagne bottle at a fixed angle, assisting with steady pouring and helping to keep sediment at the bottom of mature bottles.

Wiskemann silver plate pieces are crafted from a base metal core, such as nickel alloy or brass, coated with a layer of electroplated silver.

Authentic items feature stamped hallmarks or maker marks bearing the name Wiskemann, often accompanied by numerical codes for silver thickness or production reference numbers.

Place the piece on a dining table, drinks trolley, or sideboard as a functional presentation stand for champagne or wine during social gatherings.

Wash by hand using warm water and mild detergent, dry thoroughly immediately after washing, and polish periodically with a silver cloth to remove surface tarnish.
