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.

Jacobean style coffers feature framed panel construction, rectangular plank tops, and low-relief geometric wood carvings such as lozenges and arches. Originating in 17th-century Britain, these heavy oak trunks served as primary household storage units for linens and possessions.

Traditional coffers were constructed from solid oak boards joined with mortise and tenon joints secured by wooden dowels or pegs. The structure incorporates framed panels, hinged lids, and integrated stile feet extending directly from the vertical corner posts.

Nineteenth-century revival coffers display more uniform saw marks, modernised iron hardware, and refined internal joinery compared to earlier pieces. Authentic 17th-century examples show hand-planed uneven interiors, hand-forged iron strap hinges, and extensive signs of historical wear.

A carved oak coffer functions as a blanket box at the foot of a bed, a hallway bench, or a storage chest in a living space. Positioned against neutral walls or paired with contemporary linen upholstery, the textured oak carving creates a natural focal point.

Maintain oak coffers by dusting surfaces regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth and applying beeswax once or twice yearly. Keep the chest away from direct radiators and humid environments to protect the wood from warping or splitting.
