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.

The Regency period, spanning roughly 1811 to 1830, is defined by classical proportions, elegant symmetry, and mahogany construction. Key design markers include bow-fronted or serpentine silhouettes, brass lion-head or ring handles, delicate line inlays, and outward-curving splayed bracket feet.

Primary woods typically included solid mahogany and high-figure flame mahogany veneers, often sourced from the West Indies. Secondary woods used for drawer linings included oak and pine, while hardware was cast from solid brass with etched or stamped detailing.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer linings, asymmetrical shrinkage lines across wood panels, and natural oxidisation on the underside and reverse. Original brass fitments will show slight hand-worked irregularities and age-related patina rather than uniform modern machine finishing.

A dark mahogany bowfront chest pairs effectively with pale, neutral wall palettes to highlight its wood grain and silhouette. It serves as an ideal anchor in a hallway, guest room, or main suite when topped with contemporary ceramics, minimal table lamps, or framed artwork.

Position the piece away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and veneer bleaching. Apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year with a microfibre cloth, buffing along the direction of the wood grain.
