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

Historically, pigeon hole units were used in sorting offices, clerk desks, banks, and postal stations to organize incoming mail, legal documents, and paperwork into designated compartments.

Victorian pigeon holes were predominantly constructed from solid native softwoods such as pine, or hardwoods like oak and mahogany, featuring hand-cut joinery and thin timber dividers.

Authentic pieces feature signs of age including natural surface wear, historic nail or peg construction, irregular divider spacing, and genuine patination from repeated hand contact.

These units function well as decorative wall displays, shoe storage in boot rooms, organizer shelving in home offices, or open kitchen spice and glassware storage.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the timber and protect the original patinated surface.
