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.

Hide-covered trunks were widely used throughout the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries as durable travel luggage, designed to repel moisture and endure overland journeys by coach or ship.

These trunks typically feature a wooden carcass bound in natural animal hide or cowhair leather, fastened with iron or brass studded tacks and reinforced with metal corner brackets.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-forged ironwork, hand-cut brass or iron tacks, historic wear or hair loss consistent with age, and traditional joinery within the timber interior.

Place the trunk at the foot of a bed, beneath a window, or as a distinctive centrepiece in a living room to introduce textural warmth and historical contrast.

Keep the trunk away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent the hide from drying or shedding, and dust gently using a dry soft brush.
