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

Victorian burr walnut boxes are storage containers crafted during the nineteenth century using cut veneers from walnut tree burls, known for intricate swirling grain patterns. These items frequently feature brass edging, flush cartouches, escutcheons, and velvet or leather fitted interiors.

Construction typically involved a solid pine or mahogany carcass covered in figured burr walnut veneer. Accoutrements were made of cast or stamped brass, while internal linings utilized silk, velvet, or skiver leather.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joinery, natural oxidisation on brass components, and minor wear around keyholes and base edges. Lock mechanisms often display period maker marks, such as Bramah or cabinetmaker stamps, alongside hand-filed screws.

Position the box on an office desk, console table, or stacked atop books on a coffee table to add texture and historical interest. It serves as decorative storage for stationery, keys, or small items.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain. Avoid placing the wood in direct sunlight or near heat sources to prevent veneer cracking and discolouration.
