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.
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.

A Georgian wine cooler, often termed a cellarette or sarcophagus, was designed in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries to hold ice and cool wine bottles within formal dining rooms.

These pieces were predominantly crafted from solid mahogany or flame mahogany veneers, often lined with lead or zinc to retain ice, and featured intricate wood carvings such as acanthus leaves and gadrooned feet.

Authentic pieces generally display hand-cut dovetail joinery, original hand-forged brass fittings or lock plates, natural age-related patination, and proportional neoclassical tapering reminiscent of classical sarcophagi.

These compact pieces serve effectively as distinctive side tables, statement accent furniture beside dining tables, or discreet storage options in a hallway or study.

Maintain the piece by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying high-grade beeswax twice annually to preserve the timber finish while avoiding direct heat sources and high humidity.
