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 Georgian linen press is a two-part wooden storage cabinet originating in eighteenth-century Britain, featuring an upper cupboard with doors covering sliding trays alongside a lower section composed of drawers.

Cabinetmakers primarily constructed these presses using solid mahogany or flame mahogany veneers, with secondary woods such as pine or oak for drawer linings, alongside cast brass handles and escutcheons.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-planed timber surfaces, original lock mechanisms, and secondary oak or pine drawer linings showing natural age shrinkage.

A mahogany linen press functions as a functional focal point in a master bedroom, hallway, or living space, contrasting dark wood tones against neutral contemporary paint schemes.

Apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, keep the piece away from direct heat sources, and maintain stable indoor humidity to prevent timber movement or splitting.
