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.

An 18th-century walnut chest of drawers typically features a solid soft-wood or oak carcass covered with figured walnut veneers, often edged with crossbanding or featherbanding. The configuration generally consists of two short upper drawers over two or three long drawers, resting on bracket feet.

Chests from this period utilised native woods such as walnut, ash, oak, and pine. Drawer construction featured hand-cut dovetail joints, thick drawer linings, and brass drop handles secured with solid backplates or engraved escutcheons.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn timber marks, irregular hand-cut dovetails, authentic shrinkage gaps in the wood, and original brassware with natural surface oxidisation. The underside and back boards usually show dark, unpolished timber with age-appropriate patination.

Position the chest as a focal point in a hallway, bedroom, or living area. Juxtapose the dark timber tones against neutral walls, pairing the surface with contemporary ceramics or modern artwork to create a balanced scheme.

Maintain the finish by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the item away from direct sunlight, radiators, and areas with fluctuating humidity to prevent cracking or veneer lifting.
