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 French vitrine cabinet from the 19th century typically features glazed side and front panels, decorative wood veneers such as kingwood or rosewood, intricately cast gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts, and marquetry inlays.

These pieces are usually constructed using hard wood frames surfaced with fine veneers, serpentine or flat glass panes, mercury-gilded or cast bronze fittings, and interior linings made of silk or velvet.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut marquetry, cast bronze mounts with hand-chased detail, original mercury gilding or natural patination, uneven mouth-blown glass panes, and age-appropriate wear to internal linings.

A vitrine can be styled alongside contemporary art and neutral decor, serving as a focal storage piece filled with ceramics, sculpture, or glassware to blend modern minimalism with historical craftsmanship.

Dust wood surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, avoid harsh chemical glass cleaners near metal mounts, and keep the piece away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent veneer lifting.
