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

An Edwardian ships chest is a specialised piece of maritime or campaign storage furniture constructed during the early 20th century for use aboard sea vessels or during travel. These chests were designed with compact, flush fittings and drop-front compartments to maximise utility and secure items in transit.

These chests were typically crafted from solid woods such as mahogany, teak, or oak, chosen for their durability and resistance to warping in marine environments. They frequently feature brass corner brackets, flush-mounted handles, and sturdy internal dividers to protect contents.

Authentic pieces feature recessed or flush-fitting brass hardware, mortise-and-tenon or dovetail joinery, and functional interior partitions or fold-down writing surfaces. Evidence of historical wear around the handles and original brass locks also indicates authenticity.

A mahogany ships chest works well as a focal piece in a hallway, bedroom, or study. Pairing the piece with neutral contemporary artwork, structured table lamps, or minimal ceramic vessels creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Keep the timber away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking or discolouration. Dust regularly with a clean, dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually along the grain to nourish the mahogany and preserve its finish.
