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

The Chippendale style originated in 18th-century England, popularised by cabinetmaker Thomas Chippendale through his publication The Gentleman and Cabinet-Makers Director, combining Gothic, Rococo, and Chinese influences.

These pieces were traditionally constructed from dense, durable hardwoods such as solid mahogany and sometimes walnut, often featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, brass hardware, and individually glazed glass panes.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-correct joinery like hand-cut dovetails, tool marks on secondary timbers, old patination on the wood, and traditional glass with minor imperfections or bubbles.

Pairing dark wood furniture with neutral walls, minimalist lighting, and curated modern art creates a balanced contrast between historical depth and contemporary aesthetics.

Maintain stable indoor humidity levels and avoid direct sunlight to prevent wood cracking and fading. Clean periodically with a soft, dry cloth and apply high-quality beeswax sparingly when needed.
