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 boudoir grand piano is a medium-length acoustic piano designed primarily for domestic drawing rooms during the late Victorian era. These instruments feature full tonal scale projection while maintaining a cabinet size suited to private residences, often embellished with turned legs and fretwork desks.

Pianos from this period utilized solid wood framing, veneers such as rosewood, walnut, or mahogany, and heavy cast iron frames to maintain string tension. Internal components incorporate spruce soundboards, felt hammers, and brass hardware fittings.

Authentic C. Bechstein pianos feature stamped or gilt maker markings above the keyboard, serial numbers cast into the iron frame or stamped on the soundboard, and distinct structural cabinet designs corresponding to documented production ledgers.

A grand piano functions as an architectural focal point in a reception room or hall. Position the instrument away from direct heat sources, draughts, and full sunlight to preserve the wooden cabinet work and maintain pitch stability.

Maintain a stable room climate with relative humidity between 45% and 55% to prevent wood movement. Dust the exterior regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and avoid liquid polishes or harsh chemical solvents on historical finishes.
