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

An apprentice chest of drawers, also known as a maquette or master trial piece, is a miniature cabinet constructed by a trainee cabinetmaker to demonstrate technical competence in joinery, drawer fitting, and shaping prior to entering a guild.

Dutch apprentice chests were traditionally crafted using native hardwoods such as oak or walnut, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, solid oak drawer linings, and cast brass swing handles.

Authentic period apprentice pieces display miniature scale joinery matching full-sized construction techniques, including hand-sawn timber marks, original brass hardware with hand-cut threads, and natural oxidation along internal drawer runners.

A miniature chest of drawers functions effectively as a decorative tabletop piece on a sideboard, console, or desk, offering functional storage for jewellery, stationery, or trinkets.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture.
