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

A Canterbury is a low, compartmentalised wooden stand originally designed in the late 18th century to hold sheet music, named after the Archbishop of Canterbury who commissioned the initial design.

Typically constructed from woods such as mahogany or rosewood, a Georgian Canterbury features hand-dovetailed base drawers, delicate turned corner pillars, slatted dividers, and brass castors for mobility.

Authentic pieces display original brass castors, hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer casing, period-correct turned finials, and natural wear or patination on the timber dividers and handles.

Contemporary interiors often utilise an antique Canterbury alongside a reading chair or sofa as a functional holder for magazines, art books, or oversized periodicals.

Regular dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and an occasional application of natural beeswax polish will preserve the timber lustre, while avoiding placement near direct heat sources prevents wood shrinkage.
