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

Office document racks from the 1920s were designed for commercial offices, banks, and public libraries to manage the increasing volume of paper correspondence, pamphlets, and leaflets generated during the period.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid oak or oak veneers, often featuring quarter-sawn figuring. Construction methods included dovetail joints, brass hardware, and stacked stepped tiers secured with internal pins or screws.

Authenticity is indicated by traditional timber shrinkage, hand-cut joinery, period-appropriate brass label holders or coin slots, and the natural oxidisation and wear patterns consistent with age rather than artificial distressing.

This piece functions effectively as a decorative desk organiser in a study or as a wall-mounted display for magazines and mail, adding texture and historical contrast to contemporary workspaces.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and strong sunlight to prevent warping and fading. Dust regularly with a dry cloth and apply a microcrystalline wax periodically to nourish the wood.
