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

Preserve the wood by maintaining stable room humidity, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent veneer fading, and periodically applying microcrystalline wax to nourish and protect the polished surface.

A cellarette can be repurposed as a sophisticated side table in a living room, a decorative storage chest for blankets, or placed in a dining space to hold modern bar accessories.

Authenticity is identified through period-appropriate timber grain, hand-cut dovetail joints, original brass or bronze mounts, lead linings with soldered joints, and signs of genuine age-related wear and patination.

These pieces are typically constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany, oak, or exotic veneers such as burr yew, often featuring lead-lined interiors for ice and water, hand-carved decorative motifs, and cast brass hardware.

A Regency cellarette is a lockable container traditionally used in the dining room during the late 18th and early 19th centuries to store and cool wine bottles before they were served at the table.
