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

During the nineteenth century, luggage stands were introduced in country houses and hotels to support heavy travelling trunks and portmanteaux, elevating them off the floor for easy packing and unpacking.

Victorian luggage stands were primarily constructed from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, featuring mortise and tenon joinery alongside turned legs and slatted upper platforms.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut joinery, authentic wood shrinkage around fixings, natural patination, hand-turned front legs, and heavy solid timber construction rather than light modern veneers.

An antique luggage stand can function as a low occasional bench at the foot of a bed, a display platform for books and trays in a hallway, or functional luggage support in a guest bedroom.

Maintain mahogany by dusting regularly with a soft dry microfiber cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, avoiding direct sunlight and proximity to radiators.
