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 Victorian dome top travelling trunk is a 19th-century luggage container constructed with a curved lid, timber reinforcing slats, and protective metal hardware. The curved top design ensured the trunk was loaded at the top of stackable luggage holds during transit, preventing heavy items from being placed above it.

These trunks were typically built around a pine or hardwood carcass covered in embossed sheet tin, canvas, or leather. Exterior reinforcement was provided by steam-bent wood slats, cast iron or brass corner brackets, metal binding straps, and heavy iron locking mechanisms.

Authentic Victorian trunks feature period construction details such as hand-riveted metal straps, stamped brass or iron lock plates, original paper or fabric linings, and timber slats exhibiting historic surface wear and natural wood oxidisation.

An antique travelling trunk functions as a functional feature piece placed at the foot of a bed, as an occasional coffee table in a living area, or as accent storage in an entryway, providing tactile contrast alongside modern soft furnishings.

Clean exterior surfaces using a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth to remove dust. Preserve metal fittings and embossed panels with a thin application of microcrystalline wax to prevent further oxidisation, and treat wooden slats with a wax polish.
