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 chest on chest, also known as a tallboy, is a furniture piece comprising two stacked chests of drawers, designed to provide extensive vertical storage while minimising floor space.

These pieces were typically constructed using solid hardwoods such as oak or pine for the internal carcass, finished with figured burr walnut veneers on the exterior and fitted with cast brass handles.

Authentic tallboys feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, original steel or brass locks, natural oxidisation on drawer linings, and two separate upper and lower carcasses designed to detach for transport.

Pairing a tall chest of drawers with contemporary artwork, minimalist lighting, or neutral wall tones creates a balanced contrast between traditional cabinet making and modern aesthetic schemes.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or veneer shrinkage, clean surfaces with a dry microfibre cloth, and apply clear beeswax annually to protect the finish.
