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

French Empire and Neoclassical bookcases from the nineteenth century feature symmetrical proportions, rich mahogany veneers, and applied gilt-metal or ormolu mounts. They frequently incorporate architectural elements such as fluted pilasters, moulded cornices, and glass-fronted upper doors set above closed cupboard bases.

These cabinets typically feature a solid timber frame veneered in flame mahogany, paired with cast brass or bronze mounts finished in gilt. Glazed doors are constructed with glass panes held by moulded timber beads, while internal shelving is supported by adjustable ladder or peg systems.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints on internal drawer elements, hand-planed backboards, and natural oxidisation on the brass mounts. Additionally, examine the interior timber for age-appropriate shrinkage and original locking mechanisms.

Position the piece as a focal point in a dining room, library, or hallway, balancing its visual weight with contemporary lighting and neutral walls. The interior shelves can display a curated mix of bound books, ceramics, and glass objects to create depth and contrast.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the wood grain, avoiding contact with metal fittings. Clean the gilt-metal mounts using a soft dry brush to remove dust from detailed casting without using abrasive chemical polishes.
