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.

A grained painted blanket box is a wooden storage chest treated with a decorative paint technique designed to imitate more expensive wood grains such as oak or mahogany. Popular throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, these chests were commonly used in rural homes for storing textiles and linens.

These trunks were typically constructed from softwood timber such as pine or deal, held together with dovetail joints or iron nails. Hardware often featured hand-forged iron strap hinges, lock plates, and internal lid battens to support heavy wooden tops.

Authentic examples display natural wear patterns around bases and handles, hand-forged ironwork with slight irregularities, and historic scumble or grain-painted finishes showing light surface patination. Interior surfaces often remain unpainted pine displaying historical tool marks.

A painted wooden chest can function as a central coffee table, a bench at the foot of a bed, or functional entryway storage. Its warm timber tones and patinated surface provide contrast against neutral, modern minimalist interiors.

Maintain the piece by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a clear beeswax paste annually to protect the original finish. Avoid placing the chest directly adjacent to heat sources or radiator units to prevent timber shrinkage.
