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

A plank coffer, also referred to as a boarded chest, is an early form of storage container made from solid wooden planks fitted together with nails or wooden pegs, widely produced during the 17th century.

These coffers were crafted predominantly from native solid oak, held together with hand-cut iron nails or dowels, and finished with hand-forged iron lock plates and hinges.

Authentic period coffers display hand-sawn timber marks, uneven plank dimensions, historic oxidisation on wrought-iron hardware, and V-cut slab end construction that forms the feet.

An antique coffer functions as a versatile accent piece that adds visual weight and historical character when placed at the foot of a bed, beneath a window, or along an entrance hall.

Preserve the patinated surface by dusting with a lint-free cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish once or twice annually, while keeping the piece away from radiators and direct sunlight.
