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

Queen Anne and Georgian furniture styles are characterized by graceful proportions, gentle curves, and the widespread introduction of cabriole legs. These periods emphasised figure-rich timber veneers, such as walnut and mahogany, accompanied by shaped drawer fronts and delicate brass hardware.

Chests of drawers from this era traditionally feature solid timber carcase construction overlaid with decorative walnut veneers. Drawer boxes are constructed using hand-cut dovetail joints, fitted with solid oak or pine drawer linings, and finished with cast brass drop handles.

Authentic period pieces exhibit uneven hand-cut dovetail joints, slight shrinkage marks along timber grain lines, and genuine wear on drawer runners. Additionally, examining the underside and back panels will reveal period tool marks and natural age-related oxidisation of the wood.

A walnut chest serves as an effective focal point in contemporary bedrooms, hallways, or living spaces. The rich timber tones create depth when contrasted against neutral wall finishes, contemporary artwork, or modern table lighting.

Maintain walnut furniture by dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the wood. Avoid placing the item directly adjacent to heat sources or in direct sunlight to prevent veneer drying or bleaching.
