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

Coffers evolved from medieval liturgical chests used for storing valuables and documents before becoming household staples for linens and clothing.

They were predominantly constructed from solid English oak using frame-and-panel techniques with pegged joints to accommodate seasonal wood movement.

Maintain stable indoor humidity levels, keep out of direct sunlight, and nourish the timber periodically with traditional beeswax rather than modern silicon polishes.

Position the piece at the foot of a bed or in a hallway to provide functional storage while introducing historic warmth and texture to contemporary spaces.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut joints, traditional adze marks on interior boards, period-appropriate ironwork, and natural oxidisation accumulated over centuries.
