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.

Secure Transit

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

Bookcases from this period typically feature geometric framing, solid oak or oak veneer construction, and full-length glass panelling. Many commercial pieces integrated understated Art Deco moulding alongside functional, straight-lined silhouettes designed for institutional or domestic office use.

These cabinets were predominantly built using dark-stained oak or mahogany veneers over solid softwood or oak cores. Doors utilised standard clear glass panels framed with timber glazing bars, complemented by brass or steel locks and hinges.

Look for authentic wear patterns around handles and hinges, genuine timber grain beneath aged varnish, and period-appropriate jointing such as dovetails or mortise-and-tenon construction. Original hand-painted signage will show natural craquelure or light surface degradation rather than crisp digital uniformity.

Position the piece against a light neutral or deep contrasting wall to highlight its silhouette. Utilize the interior shelving for curated book arrangements, ceramics, or glass objects, allowing the architectural lines of the timber and glass to anchor the room.

Clean the glass using a soft microfibre cloth slightly dampened with water or specialized glass cleaner, avoiding contact with any hand-painted lettering. Apply a high-grade beeswax polish to the wooden frame periodically to nourish the grain and preserve the original finish.
