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 serpentine credenza is a side cabinet defined by an undulating, wave-like front profile, popularised during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in European cabinet making.

These cabinets typically utilise fine hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or kingwood, decorated with contrasting wood veneers for marquetry and finished with cast gilt-bronze ormolu mounts.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples feature hand-cut floral marquetry, cast bronze ormolu fitments with hand-chased details, and custom-fitted curved glass panes.

Position the credenza as a focal point in a formal dining room or spacious hallway, balancing its detailed ornamentation with understated contemporary artwork placed on the wall above.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth, apply natural beeswax sparingly to preserve the timber, and avoid harsh chemical cleaners on gilt-bronze mounts to prevent damage to the patination.
