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.
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.
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.

An Anglo-Indian padouk blanket box is a heavy timber storage chest crafted in South Asia during the colonial period, blending European furniture forms with regional woodcarving and decorative brass work.

These chests are typically constructed from dense, durable hardwoods such as padouk, teak, or rosewood, complemented by pierced brass mounts, brass studding, and iron drop handles.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut joinery, hand-hammered brass fittings with slight irregularities, and deeply undercut relief carving showing original chisel marks rather than machine uniformity.

A carved timber chest functions effectively placed at the foot of a bed for linens, utilised as a central coffee table in a living room, or positioned in a hallway as an entryway bench.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft cloth and applying clear beeswax sparingly, taking care to clean around brass fittings without using abrasive chemical polishes.
