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

Scumble painting was a 19th-century decorative technique where a thin, semi-opaque glaze was applied over a lighter base paint and combed or combed through to mimic expensive hardwood grains like oak or mahogany.

These trunks were typically constructed from softwood timber such as pine or deal, held together with dovetail or rebate joints, and fitted with forged iron side handles, metal hinges, and locks.

Authentic pieces display natural wear to the painted surface, hand-cut joinery, hand-forged iron hardware, and historical markings or stencilled names indicating original ownership.

A large wooden trunk functions as a coffee table in a living room, extra storage at the foot of a bed, or a functional statement piece in an entryway.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid abrasive chemical cleaners or excessive water, which can strip or damage the historic painted glaze.
