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 in the late 18th century and widely produced throughout the Victorian era, a bow fronted chest features a gently convex curved front facade. This curved profile was designed to soften the straight lines of a room while maximising internal storage space.

Cabinetmakers predominantly used solid mahogany or flame mahogany veneers over pine and oak carcasses. Construction features include hand-cut dovetail joints, cockbeaded drawer borders, turned wooden handles, and solid timber drawer linings.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn dovetail joints with subtle irregularities, secondary timber shrinkage on drawer bottoms, period-correct turned knobs or brass escutcheons, and hand-planed back panels.

Position the chest as a grounding feature in an entryway or bedroom, pairing dark mahogany tones against neutral paint palettes, modern ceramics, or contemporary artwork.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish once or twice a year following the grain of the wood. Keep the item away from direct radiators and sunlight to prevent heat damage and veneer lifting.
