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.

FAQs

Regency style furniture, prevalent during the early 19th century in Britain, is characterised by classical proportions, inspired by ancient Greek, Roman, and Egyptian forms, often featuring clean lines, dark imported woods like mahogany, and subtle brass accents.

These pieces are traditionally constructed from dense tropical hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, frequently incorporating hand-turned spindle supports, dovetailed joints in drawer construction, and brass castors for mobility.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate construction methods, such as hand-cut dovetails, timber shrinkage consistent with age, old-growth wood grain patterns, and hand-turned components rather than machine-toothed consistency.

This versatile storage unit functions well in traditional and modern settings alike, providing vertical display space for books, ceramics, and objects while adding architectural warmth and historical texture to a room.

Preserve antique mahogany by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber splitting, applying traditional beeswax polish periodically, and avoiding silicone-based commercial sprays.
