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

Adam style furniture, developed by architect Robert Adam in the late 18th century, is defined by Neoclassical symmetry, slender classical proportions, and motifs inspired by ancient Roman and Greek architecture, such as urns, swags, patera, and fluted legs.

These cabinets were typically constructed using solid and veneered mahogany, blown glass panes for the glazed doors, and brass hardware for handles, escutcheons, and key hinges.

Look for crisp classical carvings including drapery swags, urn friezes, astragal glazing bars in geometric or oval configurations, and square tapered or fluted support legs.

Place the piece against a neutral or rich wall backdrop in a formal dining space, hallway, or study, using the glazed shelves to display curated ceramics, glass, or bound books.

Keep the wood surfaces clear of direct sunlight and radiators to prevent shrinking or fading, clean the glass with microfibre cloths, and apply a natural beeswax polish along the grain annually.
