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

Pier cabinets were originally designed in the 18th and 19th centuries to stand against the pier, or wall space between two windows, often paired with matching wall mirrors to reflect light into the room.

High-quality hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, and walnut were predominantly used, frequently complemented by gilt accents, brass mounts, and glazed or mirrored door panels.

Authentic pieces feature period joinery such as hand-cut dovetails, hand-planed backboards, period-appropriate brass hardware, and subtle natural oxidisation on older mirror panels.

They can be arranged symmetrically on either side of a fireplace or entryway, serving as elegant occasional storage while supporting lamps, artwork, or decorative ceramics on their top surfaces.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually, avoiding harsh chemical glass cleaners near gilded mouldings and keep the wood away from direct heat sources.
