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.

Originally crafted for museums, retail shops, and grand residences, these cases featured extensive glass panelling and solid hardwood frames to showcase collections while protecting them from dust.

Construction typically combined dense hardwoods like European oak or walnut with hand-blown or early float glass, featuring brass hinges, latches, and internal shelving supports.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut joinery, subtle thickness variations in the original glass panels, original brass hardware, and authentic wear along the timber base and edges.

These pieces function effectively as kitchen islands, room dividers, or display units in living areas to present ceramics, books, or curated objects.

Clean glass panels with a lint-free cloth and mild cleaner while avoiding timber contact, which should be nourished periodically with a natural beeswax polish.
