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.

A Georgian secretaire bookcase is an eighteenth-century multi-functional furniture item combining an upper glazed display cabinet for books with a drop-down writing desk and lower storage cupboards or drawers.

These pieces were typically constructed using solid mahogany and mahogany veneers, with oak or pine drawer linings, hand-blown float glass, brass hardware, and occasional decorative wood inlays such as satinwood.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, irregular hand-blown glass panes, original brass escutcheons, hand-planed back panels, and natural wood oxidation on unpainted interior surfaces.

Position the piece as a focal point in a study or living area, pairing its rich wood tones with contemporary neutral wall colours, minimalist ceramics inside the cabinet, and modern lighting.

Maintain mahogany by dusting with a soft dry microfiber cloth, applying beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources, and cleaning glass panes with a mild alcohol-free cleaner.
