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.

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 French vitrine is a specialised glass-fronted display cabinet designed to exhibit delicate porcelain, curios, and valuables. Popularised during the Neoclassical and Louis XVI Revival periods, these cabinets feature large glass panes, thin wooden glazing bars, and polished timber frames.

High-quality French display cabinets typically feature mahogany, rosewood, or kingwood veneers over solid oak frames. Ornamental accents are crafted using cast gilt-bronze or brass mounts, accompanied by clear float glass shelves and bevelled glass doors.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joinery, hand-chased gilt-bronze mounts, and period-correct lock mechanisms with original keys. The timber usually displays natural patination and age-appropriate wear around working edges and lower mouldings.

A glazed cabinet provides visual depth in a formal dining space or hallway when used to display ceramics, glassware, or sculpted objects. Modern interiors benefit from pairing rich mahogany finishes with neutral wall tones and minimal surrounding decor to balance proportions.

Mahogany surfaces should be dusted with a microfibre cloth and waxed annually with a natural beeswax polish. Gilt-bronze mounts require gentle dusting with a soft brush and should never be cleaned with harsh chemical metal polishes that strip protective patination.
