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.

A Georgian wine cooler, also known as a cellarette or wine cistern, is a dedicated wooden vessel crafted during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries to hold ice and keep bottles of wine chilled during formal meals.

These pieces were typically crafted from solid timbers such as mahogany or walnut, reinforced with decorative brass binding hoops, and fitted with a internal zinc or lead liner to retain liquid and ice.

Authentic period examples exhibit coopered timber staves, hand-turned brass fixings, historic oxidisation to the interior metal liner, and natural wood shrinkage around the joints consistent with age.

While originally positioned beside a dining table, a wine cooler can be displayed in an entrance hall, used as a planter for indoor greenery, or placed in an alcove as decorative occasional furniture.

Maintain the mahogany using a pure beeswax polish applied along the grain with a dry cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals on the brass bands and keeping moisture away from unlined timber surfaces.
