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

Maintain antique wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and applying high-quality beeswax periodically to nourish the finish.

Balancing historic pieces in a contemporary setting involves using the dark wood to anchor a neutral room or pairing the classic silhouette with modern minimalist seating and lighting to create contrast.

Authenticity is indicated by traditional joinery methods such as dovetailing in the drawers, hand-cut glass with minor imperfections or bubbles, and appropriate patination and wear consistent with age.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, and oak, incorporating hand-blown or cylinder glass panels and brass hardware.

Late Victorian furniture, produced towards the end of Queen Victorias reign in the late 19th century, often combined traditional craftsmanship with eclectic revival styles, frequently featuring darker woods and functional yet decorative detailing.
