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 canterbury is a low, compartmentalised piece of furniture originally designed in the late 18th and 19th centuries to hold sheet music, often featuring turned spindles and a lower drawer.

Victorian canterburys were typically crafted from solid timbers such as walnut or mahogany, frequently finished with burr walnut veneers, dovetail drawer joinery, bobbin-turned dividers, and brass castors.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer, age-consistent timber patination, original brass or ceramic castors, and hand-turned spindle dividers.

While originally created to store sheet music, a canterbury functions effectively in contemporary homes as a magazine holder, vinyl record storage, or an accent side table beside seating.

Keep burr walnut items away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement or fading, and clean regularly with a dry cloth followed by periodic applications of natural beeswax.
