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.

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

Luxury exotic leather goods gained significant popularity during the early 20th century, particularly in the Art Deco era of the 1920s. Crocodile and alligator skins were favoured for high-end travel cases, vanity boxes, and dressing table accoutrements due to their distinctive texture and durability.

These boxes typically feature a solid wooden frame wrapped meticulously in genuine crocodile skin, often lined with velvet, silk, or fine suede. The exterior showcases natural reptilian scales glued and stitched securely over the foundation structure.

Authentic vintage crocodile skin features irregular scale sizes with subtle natural variations and deep, defined membrane lines between scales. Unlike synthetic embossed imitations, genuine skin often exhibits tiny sensory pores visible under magnification near the centre of each scale.

Position the box on a dressing table, bedside stand, or stacked atop large art books on a coffee table or sideboard. Its rich textured finish adds warmth and tactile contrast to polished modern surfaces or minimalist room settings.

Keep the box away from direct sunlight, central heating radiators, and high humidity to prevent the leather from drying or cracking. Periodically condition the surface with a specialist reptile leather cream using a soft, lint-free cloth.
