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.

Originating in late 18th-century France, the Directoire style is defined by Neoclassical restraint, clean architectural lines, fluted stiles, understated brass mouldings, and simple geometric forms.

These commodes typically incorporate primary hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, fitted with grey or white marble tops and modest brass mounts, escutcheons, and drop handles.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints, solid oak or pine secondary drawer lining, hand-sawn timber undersides, original marble slabs, and period-correct brass hardware.

Position the commode as a focal point in a hallway, bedroom, or living space, pairing its rich mahogany hues and marble top with neutral walls and modern artwork above.

Dust the timber with a dry microfibre cloth and wax with natural beeswax occasionally, while cleaning the marble surface using a pH-neutral stone cleaner to prevent etching or staining.
