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

Designed during the late 19th century, a gentlemans dressing chest combines a bank of drawers with an upper cupboard or alcove section, specifically built to organise clothing and grooming accessories within a single compact footprint.

These pieces were typically crafted using solid mahogany and mahogany veneers laid over pine frameworks, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, solid wooden back panels, and brass drop handles.

Authentic items from around 1890 feature hand-jointed drawer construction, period brass hardware displaying natural oxidisation, original lock mechanisms, and consistent age-related patina across the timber finish.

Position the chest as a primary storage feature in a bedroom or dressing room, balancing the deep wood tones against neutral walls, modern lighting fixtures, and minimal tabletop accessories.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice per year to protect the timber, keeping the piece away from direct radiators and bright sunlight.
