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

Georgian chests of drawers from the 18th century typically feature balanced proportions, solid or veneered mahogany construction, and symmetrical drawer layouts. Standard design hallmarks include bracket feet, brass swan-neck handles, moulded tops, and occasionally integrated pull-out brushing slides.

These chests were primarily constructed using mahogany, often backed with secondary timbers such as pine or oak for drawer linings and carcases. Construction features include hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-planed drawer bases, and sand-cast brass hardware.

Authenticity is indicated by uneven hand-cut dovetails, hand-sawn timber marks on the rear panels, and original brass lock escutcheons. Natural timber shrinkage across the grain and historical surface patination are also key indicators of period origin.

A Georgian chest functions as a focal point in hallways, bedrooms, or living spaces when paired with contemporary wall treatments. Placing modern table lamps, stoneware ceramics, or structured foliage on the top surface creates a balanced contrast between historical and modern elements.

Maintain the surface by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and applying beeswax once or twice a year. Keep the piece away from direct sunlight and radiator heat sources to prevent timber movement, cracking, or finish alteration.
