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

A military campaign chest is a modular piece of storage furniture engineered to be easily dismantled into two sections for transport by military officers during overseas deployments in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

These chests were typically constructed from resilient hardwoods such as teak, mahogany, or camphor wood, fitted with protective brass corner straps and flush-fitting brass handles to prevent damage during transit.

Authentic pieces generally feature a two-part modular split, recessed brass handles flush with the drawer fronts, heavy side carrying handles, and traditional hand-cut dovetail joinery.

A campaign chest works well as a statement piece in a bedroom, study, or hallway, harmonising with modern neutral walls, brass lighting fixtures, and leather upholstery to combine historical character with contemporary utility.

Dust the timber surfaces regularly with a soft lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the grain, while dusting brass hardware gently to avoid stripping the natural patination.
