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.

Popularised during the nineteenth century, a Victorian burr walnut credenza typically features a central glazed or panelled cabinet flanked by open or closed shelves, often topped with an ornate mirrored backplate and decorated with figure-rich veneer and cast brass or bronze mounts.

These pieces were primarily constructed using solid hardwood frames overlaid with figure-rich burr walnut veneers, floral marquetry inlays, glass door panels, silvered mirror plates, and gilt-bronze or brass ormolu fittings.

Authentic nineteenth-century credenzas exhibit hand-cut joinery, un-planed secondary timbers on back boards, natural oxidisation on metal mounts, and subtle age-related character in early glass or mirror backings.

Position the piece as a focal point in a dining room, hallway, or formal drawing room, balancing its intricate silhouette against simple architectural backgrounds and curated display items.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent veneer lifting or fading, dust metalwork gently with a dry microfibre cloth, and apply natural beeswax sparingly to preserve the wood finish.
