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

The George II style emerged in Britain during the mid-18th century, characterised by architectural proportions, robust construction, and the increasing use of walnut before mahogany became dominant.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames with figured veneer surfaces, hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, and brass batwing or drop-handle hardware.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-finished dovetailing, natural timber shrinkage, period-appropriate brass fixings, and signs of age-related wear beneath secondary woods.

Pair the wooden tones with contemporary minimalist seating and neutral walls to create a balanced study space that highlights the craftsmanship.

Maintain the finish by applying natural beeswax periodically, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading, and keeping the item away from direct heat sources.
