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

Originating in 19th-century France during the reign of King Louis Philippe, this style features clean, ogee-moulded frieze drawers, simple rectangular silhouettes, polished brass hardware, and fitted marble tops designed for refined functionality.

These storage chests typically combine solid timber frames with patterned timber veneers, topped with thick cut-marble slabs and completed with cast brass handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-dovetailed drawer joints, hand-planed timber back panels, natural wear to the wooden drawer runners, and original marble tops with hand-chiselled undersurfaces.

Position the chest against a neutral backdrop, placing contemporary ceramics, framed artwork, or table lamps on the marble surface to contrast historical timber grain with modern textures.

Clean the marble slab with a pH-neutral cleaner to prevent etching, and nourish the exposed timber surface with a high-grade beeswax polish while keeping the piece away from direct heat sources.
