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.

Historically, heavy-duty woven cane and wicker hampers were utilised for industrial transport, laundry collection, and domestic firewood storage due to their durability and lightweight ventilation.

These baskets are constructed using natural materials such as unpeeled willow, cane, or rattan, often reinforced with timber base runners and leather or iron strapping.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural patina, wear to the base runners, original hand-woven construction irregularities, and occasionally original stencilled inventory numbers or lettering.

Position the basket near a hearth or entryway to store firewood, extra throws, or shoes, introducing natural texture to contemporary, country, or industrial interiors.

Remove dust using a dry brush or vacuum attachment, and occasionally wipe with a slightly damp cloth while avoiding excessive moisture to prevent mould growth.
