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.

A Regency secretaire bookcase is a dual-purpose piece of 19th-century English case furniture combining an upper glazed display cabinet with a pull-out or fall-front writing desk and a lower storage cupboard.

Cabinetmakers during the Regency period primarily utilised fine Cuban or flame mahogany veneers, solid oak secondary drawer linings, hand-blown glass panes, and cast brass fittings.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-shaped astragal glazing bars, flame mahogany veneer patterns, period brass hardware, and secondary woods such as oak or pine in the internal construction.

Position the piece as an architectural focal point in a study, dining area, or living room, using the upper glazed section to display curated ceramics or modern glassware alongside books.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice per year, ensuring the piece is placed away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight.
