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.

Originating during the English Restoration period from 1660 to 1685, Charles II furniture marks a transition toward decorative raised geometric panel mouldings, deep oak construction, and continental style influences.

These pieces were constructed using solid English oak joined with mortise and tenon joints secured by wooden pegs, hand-sawn timber panels, and cast brass teardrop handles with decorative escutcheons.

Authentic period examples feature side-hung drawer runners, hand-chiseled joinery, uneven hand-planed back panels, and natural timber shrinkage across solid oak surfaces.

Position the piece as a focal point against neutral walls, balancing the dark timber tones with modern abstract art, contemporary ceramics, or minimalist lighting.

Preserve the original surface patina by applying a natural beeswax polish bi-annually, keeping the timber clear of direct heat sources, and maintaining stable ambient humidity.
