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.

Glass and chrome towel rails gained widespread popularity in the early-to-mid 20th century, particularly during the Art Deco era, when modern sanitary standards combined with minimalist geometric aesthetics in bathroom design.

These fixtures typically consist of solid or tubular clear glass rods fitted into cast brass or metal mounting brackets that are finished with polished chrome or nickel plating.

Authentic period pieces feature heavy solid glass rods rather than plastic or acrylic, along with original cast metal wall brackets showing age-appropriate oxidisation or wear to the screw mounting holes.

A double glass rail can be wall-mounted in modern bathrooms to introduce period charm while maintaining a light visual footprint against tiled or painted walls.

Clean glass rods using standard non-abrasive glass cleaners, and polish chrome mountings gently with a soft microfibre cloth to remove moisture marks without stripping the metal plating.
