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

The Arts and Crafts movement prioritised honest construction, functional simplicity, and the visibility of natural materials like solid oak, often featuring minimal ornamentation to highlight craftsmanship.

Period chests were typically constructed using solid timber with dovetail joints for drawer construction, mortise and tenon joinery for the frame, and backboards made of secondary timbers like pine.

Authentic pieces often feature makers labels, ivorine tags, or stamped signatures inside drawer linings, alongside characteristic minimalist hardware and meticulous timber selection.

An antique chest of drawers provides architectural grounding in contemporary spaces, contrasting cleanly against neutral walls or serving as a characterful storage solution in minimalist bedrooms.

Maintain antique oak by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent wood splitting, and nourish the surface periodically with traditional beeswax rather than modern silicone polishes.
