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.

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

Victorian washstands were essential bedroom pieces used before plumbed bathrooms became standard in homes, designed to hold a basin, jug, and personal toiletries.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid timber frames veneered with figured woods like walnut or mahogany, often incorporating inset marble slabs for water resistance and detailed marquetry inlay.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joinery in the drawers, traditional timber shrinkage, natural patination on the hardware, and period-appropriate veneer work rather than modern laminates.

A washstand works effectively as a functional sideboard in a hallway, a compact console table in a living room, or a characterful vanity unit in a contemporary bathroom.

Clean the wooden elements with a soft cloth and quality beeswax polish, avoiding silicone sprays, and use neutral, non-acidic soap solutions on the marble top to protect against staining.
