Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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 Regency secretaire cabinet typically dates from the early 19th century in Britain, combining classical proportions with functional storage. Features include roll-top or cylinder fronts, brass inlay, and upper display sections with wire grilles or glazed doors.

Cabinetmakers primarily used imported dark hardwoods such as rosewood and mahogany. Decorative elements often incorporated brass marquetry inlay, gilt-metal mountings, wire mesh grilles, and secondary interior woods like pine or oak for drawer linings.

Authentic Regency furniture exhibits hand-dovetailed drawer joints, natural timber grain variations, and genuine brass inlay set flush with the veneer. Look for reeded or turned legs and original locks or escutcheons consistent with early 19th-century manufacturing techniques.

Place the unit against a neutral wall to highlight the rich grain of the rosewood timber. The upper shelves can display bound books or ceramics, while the cylinder bureau provides a compact, functional writing desk for study areas or living rooms.

Keep the cabinet away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer lifting and timber fading. Clean surfaces with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality natural beeswax sparingly along the grain to preserve the original finish.
