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.

A Duchess dressing table is a late 19th-century Victorian design characterised by a large central swivelling mirror, tiered accessory drawers, carved front support legs, and a shaped plinth base.

These pieces were typically crafted using solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over secondary timbers like pine, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawer joinery and silvered glass mirrors.

Authentic pieces feature original wooden drawer knobs, hand-turned carved supports, dovetailed drawer construction, and a solid shaped lower stretcher base connecting the front legs.

Position the piece as a focal feature in a primary bedroom or dressing room, offset by soft neutral wall colours, contemporary linen fabrics, and modern warm lighting.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply natural beeswax twice a year along the grain, ensuring the table is kept away from direct heat sources and prolonged sunlight.
