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

Named after the 18th-century English cabinetmaker Thomas Chippendale, this style features ornate carved details, cabriole legs, ball-and-claw feet, and the extensive use of dark hardwoods such as mahogany.

Traditional pieces are primarily constructed from solid mahogany, featuring brass drop handles, carved knees, dovetail joints, and occasionally leather-lined writing surfaces.

Look for distinctive motifs such as acanthus leaf carvings along cabriole legs, carved ball-and-claw feet, gadrooned top borders, and cast brass swan-neck handles.

Position the piece as a focal point in a home office or library, balancing dark timber tones with neutral wall palettes, modern task lighting, and subtle contemporary artwork.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry lint-free cloth, apply a beeswax polish following the wood grain once a year, and keep the wood away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
