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.
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.
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.

A serpentine front chest of drawers features a undulating facade with a convex centre flanked by concave sides, a design popularised during 18th-century European cabinet making.

These chests typically feature solid timber carcases veneered in figured burr walnut, fitted with cast brass drop handles and supported by solid walnut cabriole legs.

Key indicators include hand-cut dovetail joints on drawer linings, secondary timbers such as oak or pine, authentic surface patination, and period-correct brass hardware.

A serpentine chest operates effectively as a focal piece in hallways, dining rooms, or bedrooms, contrasting traditional wood figuring against clean wall treatments and modern art.

Apply high-grade beeswax polish along the grain direction twice annually, ensuring placement away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to protect the timber.
