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

Travelling coffers and campaign chests were engineered for mobility, historically utilised by military officers and travellers to securely store personal items during long voyages.

These trunks typically feature dense hardwoods such as teak, camphor wood, or pine, reinforced with heavy brass corner mounts and flush-fitting metal hardware to resist damage in transit.

Authentic period examples often exhibit hand-dovetailed joints, recessed brass brackets set flush to prevent snagging, and natural surface oxidisation across the metal fittings.

A flat-topped travelling chest functions effectively as a central coffee table in a living room setting or as functional storage positioned at the foot of a bed.

Maintain the timber by dusting with a soft cloth and applying clear beeswax periodically, while keeping brass elements clean without harsh chemicals to preserve their natural age.
