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

A George III tambour commode is an 18th-century British bedside cabinet featuring a sliding flexible wooden shutter, known as a tambour door, originally designed to conceal chamber pots or personal items.

These pieces were primarily crafted from dense Cuban or West Indian mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine drawer linings, and slatted wooden tambour shutters glued to canvas backings.

Authentic 18th-century examples display hand-sawn timber marks, natural oxidisation on drawer linings, hand-forged iron or brass hardware, and smooth, original operational movement in the wooden tambour door.

Functioning well as an elevated bedside table or living room side table, this piece pairs effectively with modern minimalist lighting, neutral linen textiles, and contemporary artwork to create balanced visual contrast.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage or warping, clean surfaces with a soft microfibre cloth, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year.
