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.

Chippendale Revival furniture from the late 19th century draws direct inspiration from 18th-century designs, frequently incorporating carved bracket feet, rich mahogany timber, moulding-framed drawer fronts, and classical decorative details.

Cabinetmakers during this period typically utilised solid mahogany fronts or thick veneers over pine casings, employing hand-cut dovetail joints on drawer boxes along with cast brass handles and keyhole escutcheons.

Authentic period pieces display hand-cut dovetails with minor irregularities, natural wood movement or shrinkage on drawer linings, aged brass hardware with historical oxidisation, and hand-planed secondary timbers within the carcass.

Position the piece against neutral or muted walls to highlight the deep timber tone, layering modern ceramic lamps or contemporary artwork directly above to balance traditional craft with modern aesthetics.

Dust regularly using a dry, lint-free microfiber cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice per year, ensuring the piece remains away from direct heat sources and sunlight to protect the finish.
