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.

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

Originating in 18th-century France, provincial commodes adapted the elegant curves of Paris court styles, such as Louis XV design, into functional solid wood storage for country estates. They typically feature serpentine or arbaleste fronts, relief carving, and ornate metal mountings.

French cabinetmakers favoured dense hardwoods like oak, walnut, and fruitwood. Joinery relied on hand-cut dovetails and mortise and tenon construction, complemented by solid cast brass or bronze drawer pulls and keyhole escutcheons.

Authentic period commodes exhibit hand-sawn timber marks, irregular dovetail joints, original iron or brass lock mechanisms, and structural wear consistent with age. Drawer bottoms and back panels often show hand-planed secondary woods.

A bleached oak commode creates a tactile anchor in neutral schemes, blending with French Chateau, modern country, or minimalist rustic aesthetics. Layering the top surface with stone ceramics or a simple gilded mirror balances the detailed relief carvings.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a neutral beeswax paste sparingly once or twice a year to protect the timber. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent timber movement or shrinkage.
