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

Originating in 18th-century France, vitrine cabinets were designed as glass-fronted display pieces to exhibit prized possessions, porcelain, and curiosities while protecting them from dust.

These cabinets were constructed using fine cabinet woods such as kingwood, mahogany, or walnut, often adorned with cast gilt-bronze ormolu mounts, marble top slabs, and velvet-lined interiors.

Authentic period examples feature hand-chased bronze ormolu mounts with mercury gilding remnants, hand-cut joinery, solid marble shaped tops, and original thick glass panels.

Place the cabinet as a focal point in a dining room, living area, or hallway to store curated collections of glass, ceramic art, or books, contrasting traditional craftsmanship with modern decor.

Dust gilt-bronze mounts gently using a soft, dry brush. Clean the marble surface using a pH-neutral stone cleaner, and wipe wood surfaces with a microfiber cloth away from direct heat sources.
