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

An 18th-century French carved cupboard, often constructed as a buffet a deux corps in two stacked sections, is characterised by solid regional timber construction, raised geometric moulding, and hand-carved decorative motifs such as rosettes, foliage, or cherubs.

Cabinetmakers primarily used dense hardwoods such as walnut or oak, joined using traditional mortise and tenon joinery with wood pegs. Hardware typically featured hand-forged steel or iron long hinges, lock plates, and scrollwork escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of period craftsmanship, including hand-planed back boards, irregular pit-saw or adze marks, original pegged joints, authentic shrinkage across solid timber panels, and period-correct metalwork showing natural surface oxidisation.

A substantial carved cabinet serves as a focal point in a dining room, hallway, or living space. Modern interior designers contrast its rich architectural timber against neutral walls, pairing it with contemporary art or understated ceramics to balance the detailed relief carving.

Maintain walnut furniture by dusting regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the wood. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and drastic humidity fluctuations to prevent cracking or warping.
