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

A George III mahogany chest of drawers dates from the reign of King George III between 1760 and 1820 and is characterised by classical proportions, fine mahogany veneers, dovetail joint construction, and decorative detailing such as marquetry inlay, reeded pilasters, or bracket feet.

These pieces typically feature primary timber of solid mahogany or mahogany veneer, secondary drawer linings of oak or pine, hand-cut dovetail joints, cast brass hardware, and decorative boxwood or satinwood stringing.

Authentic period pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-sawn drawer linings, natural wood shrinkage across wide panels, original cast brass hardware marks, and hand-planed timber surfaces on the rear casing.

A Georgian chest functions well as a focal statement piece in contemporary bedrooms, dining spaces, or hallways when contrasted against neutral walls, modern table lamps, or minimal graphic artwork.

Maintain mahogany by dusting regularly with a soft lint-free cloth and applying a microcrystalline or beeswax polish once or twice per year, while keeping the item clear of direct heat sources and sunlight.
