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.

During the early 20th century, commercial retail expanded rapidly, leading to high demand for specialised display furniture. Manufacturers like Frederick Sage & Co created glazed display counters to allow department stores and haberdasheries to present merchandise securely under glass while enhancing store aesthetic appeal.

1920s display counters were typically constructed using solid hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or ebonised timber, fitted with thick clear glass panels. Metal accents, including brass surrounds, beadings, and velvet or felt base linings, were frequently employed to highlight featured merchandise.

Authentic pieces often feature maker marks, stamped brass plaques, or stencilled labels from renowned makers like Frederick Sage & Co. Additional indicators include heavy plate glass with original joinery, hand-turned timber legs, and period-correct brass hardware.

A vintage glazed counter functions exceptionally well as a statement island or console unit in living areas, dressing rooms, or retail spaces. Placing curated ceramics, books, or collectibles inside provides visual interest without cluttering surrounding spaces.

Glass surfaces should be cleaned using non-ammonia glass cleaners applied to a microfibre cloth rather than sprayed directly onto the frame. Ebonised and polished woodwork requires gentle dusting and an occasional application of neutral beeswax paste to preserve the original finish.
