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 specimen cabinet was designed during the Enlightenment era to house curated collections of natural history, minerals, coins, or curiosities, featuring specialised drawers or shelving enclosed by protective cupboard doors.

These pieces were predominantly crafted from dense mahogany, featuring dovetail drawer joints, brass swan-neck or drop handles, and solid oak or pine secondary timbers.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-sawn drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joints, period-correct brass escutcheons, original iron locks, and natural oxidisation on unpolished rear softwood panels.

A mahogany cabinet serves as a focal point in a study or dining room, providing structured storage while bringing architectural proportion to contemporary or eclectic interior schemes.

Maintain stable relative humidity between 40% and 50%, avoid direct sunlight, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain while dusting with a soft microfibre cloth.
