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.

Seventeenth-century English coffers typically feature framed panel construction, hand-carved decorative friezes, and peg-joined oak frames designed for storing household linens and textiles.

These trunks were constructed using mortise and tenon joints secured with wooden pegs, incorporating fielded or flat panels and wrought iron hinges or lock mechanisms.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-hewn timber marks, irregularities from pit-sawing, historical oxidisation around ironwork, and natural wear to the base of the stiles.

An oak coffer functions effectively as a hallway storage bench, a coffee table in a living area, or a functional linen chest positioned at the foot of a bed.

Maintain the timber by applying a natural beeswax polish annually, avoiding direct heat sources, and keeping the item in an environment with stable relative humidity.
