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.

Georgian furniture is characterised by classical proportions, sophisticated use of timbers like mahogany, and a focus on symmetry and refined craftsmanship.

Authentic period chests typically utilise solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over secondary woods like pine or oak, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer construction.

Key indicators include hand-planed drawer bottoms, irregularities in the dovetails indicating hand tools, shrinkage cracks, and period-appropriate brass or wooden turning knobs.

Pair the rich wood tones with contemporary artwork and minimalist accessories to create a balanced contrast between historical character and modern simplicity.

Maintain a stable room temperature away from direct sunlight and radiators, and periodically nourish the wood using traditional beeswax rather than modern silicone polishes.
