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.

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

Maintenance involves dusting with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive humidity fluctuations, and refraining from harsh chemical cleaning products that can damage painted or waxed surfaces.

This item functions effectively as an accent piece in a bedroom, hallway, or living room, providing a focal point that contrasts with minimalist modern furnishings or complements eclectic design schemes.

Authentic pieces are identified through period-appropriate construction marks, hand-cut dovetails, timber shrinkage patterns, period-correct metal hardware, and signs of genuine age-related wear rather than simulated ageing.

Traditional commodes are constructed from solid timber frames with panelled drawer boxes, often utilising dovetail joints, brass or bronze hardware, and hand-applied painted or polished finishes.

The commode originated in France during the late 17th and 18th centuries, evolving from a low cabinet or chest to a sophisticated piece of furniture featuring drawers and decorative veneers or paint finishes.
