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

Monogrammed steamer trunks originated during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to serve the expanding luxury travel market. Designed to withstand steamship and train travel, these trunks featured standardized shapes, weather-resistant canvas, and reinforced corners to enable secure stacking.

High-grade travel trunks were constructed using lightweight wood frames, such as poplar or pine, covered in treated waterproof canvas. Edges were reinforced with leather or vulcanized fibre, and brass hardware, rivets, and proprietary tumbler locks were fitted to protect contents during transit.

Authenticity is verified by examining hardware markings, serial numbers stamped into wood or canvas, and hand-stitched leather edging. Serial numbers cross-reference historical ledger entries, while consistent pattern alignment and heavy, solid brass locks reflect periods of original manufacture.

An upright or horizontal trunk functions effectively as a side table, coffee table, or sculptural accent piece in modern rooms. Positioning a trunk in a hall or living space adds texture and historical interest alongside contemporary furnishings.

Canvas should be dusted with a soft, dry brush, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that strip protective coatings. Leather borders require gentle conditioning with specialized leather balms to prevent cracking, while metal fittings should be kept free of moisture to impede oxidisation.
