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

Named after the 1st Duke of Wellington, a Wellington chest is a tall, narrow chest typically containing seven drawers secured by a hinged side locking flap.

Victorian Wellington chests were commonly constructed using walnut, mahogany, or oak, often embellished with highly figured veneers and decorative carved corbels.

Authentic examples feature a characteristic hinged side pilaster that swings over the drawer edges to lock all drawers simultaneously using a single keyhole.

With its compact footprint, a Wellington chest fits well into narrow alcoves, study corners, or hallway spaces to provide vertical organisation.

Dust surfaces regularly using a soft dry cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the wood grain while keeping the timber away from direct heat sources.
