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.

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

A lowboy is a small chest or table with drawers supported by long legs, originating in the early 18th century. Typically crafted from walnut or mahogany during the Queen Anne and George II periods, these tables served as dressing tables or side tables in grand residential interiors.

George II lowboys are constructed primarily from solid walnut or walnut veneers over oak framing, incorporating dovetail joinery in the drawers. Features include hand-cast brass hardware such as batwing backplates, drop handles, shaped aprons, and hand-turned cabriole legs terminating in pad or claw feet.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-sawn dovetails, irregular drawer linings, oak secondary woods, and genuine age wear around the feet and handles. Look for period-appropriate iron locks, original brasses or plugged holes where handles were updated, and authentic surface oxidisation under the drawers and top.

A walnut lowboy serves as a statement entryway table, a hallway console, or a bedside accent in modern interiors. Pairing the warm walnut tones and historic silhouette with minimalist lighting or contemporary artwork creates an engaging contrast.

Maintain walnut furniture by keeping it in a stable environment away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and veneer movement. Clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax paste once or twice a year to preserve the historic patina.
