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

During the 18th century, coffers and mule chests served as primary storage vessels for household linens and valuables. Elevating the chest onto a raised stand helped protect contents from cold, damp stone floors and improved accessibility.

These storage pieces were predominantly constructed from solid native hard woods, such as English oak, joined using mortise and tenon timber pegs. Hardware typically consisted of hand-forged iron hinges and brass drop handles or escutcheons.

Authentic pieces display signs of period construction, including hand-sawn timber marks, wooden dowel joinery, uneven peg construction, and natural age-related shrinkage along panel joints. Original brassware will show hand-hammered irregularities and subtle oxidisation.

An antique oak coffer functions effectively in hallways, living rooms, or at the foot of a bed, providing substantial storage while serving as a visual focal point. Combining dark period oak with neutral walls and modern textiles creates a balanced contrast.

To preserve solid oak, keep the item away from direct heat sources and constant dampness to avoid timber movement. Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the wood and maintain the surface patina.
