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

Originating in the 19th century, the attache case was developed as a rigid leather briefcase designed specifically for diplomats, government officials, and legal professionals to carry important state papers and legal documents securely.

Traditional 19th-century document cases were constructed using thick, veg-tanned cowhide or pigskin leather stretched over a firm timber or pasteboard frame, fitted with solid brass escutcheons, catches, and hand-stitched leather handles.

Authentic period pieces exhibit age-appropriate surface wear, deep natural patination, hand-stitched seams, period-correct brass locking mechanisms, and decorative blind or gold tooling along the leather edges.

An antique attache case functions as a decorative accent when styled flat on an office desk, displayed upright on a library bookshelf, or stacked atop a console table alongside antique books and brass accessories.

To preserve historic leather, store the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources, clean gently with a soft dry cloth, and periodically apply a wax-based leather balm to prevent drying and cracking.
