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.

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 chest on chest, also known as a tallboy, is a piece of furniture consisting of two stacked chests of drawers, popularised in 18th-century Britain to maximise vertical storage.

They were typically constructed using solid or veneered mahogany, oak or pine drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joints, and brass swan-neck handles with decorative escutcheons.

Authentic George III pieces feature hand-sawn dovetail jointing, natural wood shrinkage across wide panels, cast brass hardware, and secondary woods like pine or oak for internal drawer construction.

Position the tallboy as a focal anchor piece against a neutral or dark backdrop, balancing its vertical scale with refined wall art or contemporary lighting.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and radiator heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and applying high-grade beeswax annually to preserve the natural patina.
