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.

Tahitian pearls are cultivated from the black-lipped oyster, Pinctada margaritifera, primarily found in the lagoons of French Polynesia. Their distinct dark hues are entirely natural, distinguishing them from other saltwater varieties.

Traditional pearl necklaces feature individually knotted silk threads between each bead to prevent friction and loss. Clasps are typically forged from precious metals such as gold or platinum.

Authentic pearls exhibit slight surface irregularities, overtone depth, and a gritty texture when gently rubbed against the edge of a tooth. Synthetic imitations feel smooth and perfectly uniform.

While necklaces are personal adornments rather than interior decor, vintage jewellery can be displayed on a vanity tray, within a glass-topped display box, or on a decorative bust as a sculptural element.

Pearls are organic gems susceptible to damage from acids, cosmetics, and perfumes. They should be wiped with a soft cloth after wearing, stored flat away from other hard jewellery, and re-strung periodically.
