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

An Arts and Crafts book trough is an open-fronted, angled storage rack designed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to display and store books upright for easy access by the fireside or on a desk.

These pieces are predominantly crafted from solid timbers such as oak, often showcasing quarter-sawn grain patterns, mortise and tenon joinery, and cut-out decorative side profiles.

Authentic pieces feature honest functional design, visible joinery, solid wood construction, simple geometric shapes, and a lack of applied elaborate ornamentation.

Position the piece in a fireside alcove or beside a armchair, filled with art volumes, journals, or hardcovers to create a functional, textured reading corner.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain to preserve the timber finish.
