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.

Spanish Renaissance coffers from the 16th century are defined by low-relief timber carving incorporating Plateresque and heraldic motifs, such as double-headed eagles, acanthus leaf scrollwork, and geometric punchwork background textures.

These chests were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as walnut, oak, and chestnut, assembled using hand-cut dovetail or mortise and tenon joinery and often featuring wrought iron lockplates and handles.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of hand-planed timber surfaces, uneven chisel marks within deep relief carvings, historical oxidation around hand-forged iron fittings, and natural shrinkage across wide timber boards.

A carved Renaissance coffer serves as a grounding focal point when placed in an entryway, against a neutral wall, or positioned at the foot of a bed to contrast against minimalist contemporary decor.

Maintain antique timber by dusting regularly with a soft cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax paste annually, while keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and fluctuating humidity levels to prevent timber movement.
