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.

Developed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, a shaving stand is a specialized piece of freestanding dressing furniture featuring an adjustable mirror and a small shelf or drawer designed to store grooming tools such as razors, brushes, and soap.

Authentic period stands were crafted using fine cabinet woods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, combined with wrought iron or brass for telescoping shafts, gallery rails, and sturdy tripod bases.

Original pieces feature period-correct joinery on the central drawer box, functional brass thumbscrews or telescoping mechanisms for height adjustment, and original brass fittings alongside aged mirror glass.

These slender, vertical pieces function well as accent mirrors in compact dressing rooms, hallways, or bathrooms, introducing historical character without taking up significant floor space.

Maintain the timber components with beeswax polish, clean brass fittings gently without abrasive cleaners to protect natural patination, and clean mirror surfaces using a damp microfibre cloth.
