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 18th century, a low press cupboard is a piece of storage furniture featuring enclosed shelving or pull-out slides behind cupboard doors, often designed visually to imitate a standard chest of drawers.

These pieces were predominantly crafted from dense West Indian or Cuban mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints on internal slide trays, solid bracket feet, and brass swan-neck handle fittings.

Authentic Georgian pieces display hand-sawn wood marks on original back panels, hand-cut dovetail joints, cast brass hardware showing minor irregularities, and natural wood oxidation across the interior surfaces.

A low press cupboard functions as a dining room sideboard, entryway storage unit, or bedroom dresser, providing concealed storage space while adding rich timber tones to modern or traditional schemes.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish annually, avoiding aerosol cleaners, direct sunlight, and placement near central heating sources to prevent timber cracking.
