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

Victorian parlour game cases were designed to hold various indoor tabletop games popular in 19th-century English country houses, featuring compartmentalised wooden interiors to secure boards and pieces.

These cases were typically constructed from durable hardwoods such as English oak, mahogany, or walnut, often secured with solid brass clasps, flush handles, and iron hinges.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints, flush brass hardware, original steel or brass locks, and natural timber oxidisation along unexposed internal edges.

Position the case flat on a coffee table or console as a functional decorative accent, or display it open to exhibit collectible tabletop accessories.

Dust regularly with a clean microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish twice yearly, keeping the timber away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking.
