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

Late 17th-century chests typically feature raised geometric panel mouldings, joined oak timber construction, split-spindle details, and brass teardrop handles, marking the structural transition from traditional storage coffers to drawers.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from solid English oak, frequently using pine or fruitwood secondary timbers for drawer linings, assembled with hand-cut dovetail joints and wooden peg joinery.

Authentic period chests feature hand-sawn timber marks, irregular dovetail joints, original hand-filed brass escutcheons, and natural wear or shrinkage consistent with centuries of oak ageing.

Position the piece in a modern hallway or reception room to create visual balance, contrasting its dark geometric wooden panels against neutral wall palettes, ceramic vessels, and brass lighting fixtures.

Position the piece away from direct heating elements to avoid timber shrinkage, and regularly apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the grain to maintain the wood surface.
