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

A cylinder secretaire cabinet is a late 18th-century writing desk featuring a curved, rigid wooden hood that rolls back to reveal fitted drawers and small pigeonholes. The design frequently incorporates lower drawer storage and a upper glazed cabinet for displaying books or ceramics.

Cabinetmakers during the George III period utilised primary woods such as satinwood, mahogany, and rosewood, often accented with ebony or boxwood stringing inlays. Internal linings typically feature secondary timbers like pine or oak, fitted with cast brass rosette or ring handles.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, variable drawer lining thickness, and natural oxidisation on the timber. Glazing panels on period cabinets feature original glass with subtle distortions, secured by hand-cut astragal moulding.

Position the piece as a focal focal point against neutral or dark moody wall tones to highlight the warm satinwood grain. Display minimalist ceramics or contemporary art behind the glazed doors to balance historical timber tones with contemporary aesthetics.

Keep the cabinet away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent timber shrinkage or veneer cracking. Dust regularly with a clean, dry cloth and apply beeswax sparingly along the grain to maintain the natural patination.
