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.

Regency open bookcases typically feature neoclassical proportions, low-profile designs suited for displaying art above, and fine timber construction such as rosewood or mahogany adorned with gilded metal or carved pilasters.

Cabinetmakers frequently used rich figure timbers like rosewood and mahogany, often topped with imported marble slabs and detailed with brass, gilded wood pilasters, or lion mask mounts.

Authentic Regency pieces exhibit hand-carved classical details, hand-cut dovetail joints, genuine brass or gilded plaster decorative elements, and natural age-related oxidisation on the timber and gilding.

Position the piece against a feature wall, pairing the dark timber and marble top with neutral minimalist decor, contemporary artwork mounted above, and curated hardcover volumes.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a natural bees-wax polish sparingly, while cleaning the marble surface using a pH-neutral cleaner to prevent staining.
