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.

George II Chippendale period bookcases typically feature mid-18th-century proportions, rich mahogany timber, moulded cornices, rectangular glazing bars, and functional two-part construction.

These cabinets were constructed primarily from dense mahogany, incorporating oak or pine secondary timbers for internal frameworks, solid brass keyplates, and mouth-blown glass panes.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-sawn timber markings, slightly irregular historical glass panes, and genuine wood shrinkage or oxidation on backboards.

A Georgian glazed cabinet can be styled in modern interiors as a display piece for collections of ceramics, art books, or glassware, anchoring neutral walls with warm timber tones.

Position the piece away from direct heat and direct sunlight, dust regularly with a clean microfiber cloth, and apply a natural beeswax polish along the timber grain once annually.
