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

Art Deco furniture emerged in the interwar period, characterised by clean geometric lines, stylised motifs, and an emphasis on functional elegance combined with luxurious materials.

Craftsmen of this era frequently utilised solid hardwoods such as mahogany and walnut, often enhanced with exotic wood veneers like burr walnut or macassar ebony to create striking grain patterns.

Authentic pieces typically feature period-appropriate construction methods such as dovetail joints, original hardware like Bakelite or chromium handles, and distinct veneer work rather than modern laminates.

Pairing a statement wooden piece with neutral walls and minimalist modern decor allows the rich grain and historical craftsmanship to serve as a focal point in the bedroom.

Maintain wood furniture by keeping it out of direct sunlight, avoiding excessive humidity changes, and occasionally treating surfaces with a quality beeswax polish.
