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.

FAQs

Manufactured during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, galvanised tin baths served as portable domestic bathing vessels before indoor plumbing became widespread. The galvanisation process protected sheet steel from rusting, making these containers lightweight and durable for household utility.

These tubs were constructed from sheet steel coated in zinc through hot-dip galvanisation to prevent corrosion. Construction features included rolled metal rims, riveted carrying handles, horizontal ribbed reinforcement bands for structural strength, and occasionally a drainage plug near the base.

Authentic historic pieces display a natural spangled grey zinc patina, subtle surface oxidisation, and wear along the seams. Original construction markers include folded seams, riveted metal side handles, and rolled edges rather than modern welded joints.

In contemporary settings, galvanised tubs are frequently repurposed as outdoor garden planters, beverage chillers for gatherings, or indoor storage containers for firewood. Their textured grey finish integrates effectively into rustic farmhouse, industrial loft, or traditional country garden landscapes.

To preserve the zinc finish, clean the metal with mild soap, warm water, and a non-abrasive soft cloth or brush. Avoid harsh chemical rust removers, and if used outdoors as a planter, drill drainage holes to prevent standing water from accelerating interior corrosion.
