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 chest on chest, also known as a tallboy, is a piece of furniture comprising two stacked chests of drawers, popular during the 18th century to maximise vertical storage space.

They were predominantly constructed from solid mahogany or oak primary woods, featuring pine or oak drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joints, and brass handles.

Authentic 18th-century pieces typically feature hand-sawn drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joinery, original brass swan-neck handles, and evidence of hand-planed timber on the back panels.

A tallboy serves as a focal point in a bedroom or hallway, pairing well with contemporary lighting, neutral walls, and textured woven rugs.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying beeswax polish once or twice a year, while avoiding direct heat sources or damp environments.
