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 buffet deux corps is a traditional French two-part cabinet featuring a smaller upper cupboard section positioned directly on top of a wider lower base, historically used for storing linens, tableware, and household goods.

French provincial furniture was typically crafted from local regional timbers such as ash, oak, walnut, or fruitwood, constructed using traditional mortise and tenon joinery and fitted with steel or brass mounts.

Authentic 18th-century pieces display hand-planed timber surfaces, hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, period-appropriate brass or iron fittings, and natural surface wear consistent with age.

Position the piece as a focal anchor against a neutral wall in a dining room, kitchen, or living area, allowing its architectural height and natural wood grain to contrast with contemporary minimalist furnishings.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the cabinet away from direct heat sources and fluctuating humidity to prevent wood movement.
