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

During the Qing dynasty, Chinese coffers were designed with structured architectural frames, minimal metal hardware, and integrated storage featuring a top-hinged compartment above lower drawers.

Craftsmen typically utilised dense regional hardwoods such as elm, cypress, or cedar, bound with hand-forged iron or brass plates and finished with natural oil or lacquer coatings.

Authentic period pieces feature traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery constructed without modern nails, hand-carved drawer frames, and natural surface wear consistent with age.

An antique coffer serves effectively as a focal coffee table, entrance hall storage piece, or end-of-bed trunk, introducing texture and historical contrast to contemporary spaces.

Position the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent wood shrinkage, dust regularly with a clean microfibre cloth, and apply a natural beeswax polish annually to preserve the timber finish.
