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 Chinese red lacquer cupboard, frequently dating from the Qing Dynasty, is a tall two-door storage cabinet finished with natural tree resin lacquer applied in multiple coats to produce a rich crimson finish.

These pieces are typically constructed using woods such as elm or pine, bound with mortise and tenon joinery, and coated with lacquer gathered from the Toxicodendron vernicifluum tree along with hand-forged metal hardware.

Authentic 19th-century Chinese lacquer furniture exhibits natural age-related craquelure, wooden peg joinery without modern nails, hand-worked metal faceplates, and visible wear along high-touch edges.

Place the cabinet as a focal point against a neutral backdrop, using its height to draw the eye upwards and pairing it with contemporary art or muted textiles to balance the vivid finish.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth, maintain stable ambient humidity to prevent timber movement, and avoid direct sunlight or harsh chemical polishes.
