Archival Detail
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 double tea caddy is a wooden chest containing two separate lidded compartments, historically designed to store black and green tea leaves securely.

These storage boxes were typically crafted from fine hardwoods such as flame mahogany or rosewood, often lined with foil or zinc, and accompanied by brass hardware and cut-glass mixing bowls.

Authentic period tea caddies show hand-cut dovetail joinery, natural timber patination, original brass escutcheons, and proportional interior compartments tailored for tea canisters and glass bowls.

A tea caddy can be displayed open or closed on a sideboard top, desk, or mantelpiece to add historical texture and storage functionality to modern living spaces.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish occasionally while keeping the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent veneer lifting.
