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 cylinder bureau bookcase is a dual-purpose piece of writing and storage furniture featuring a curved, quarter-cylindrical fall that rotates upwards to reveal an interior writing surface and drawers, topped by an enclosed glazed cabinet.

Nineteenth-century cylinder bureaus were typically built using solid mahogany or rich flame mahogany veneers, constructed with hand-dovetailed drawer joints, oak or pine secondary timbers, and original float glass panels.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, subtle irregularities in hand-blown glass panes, original brass locking mechanisms, and smooth wear along the curved tracks of the cylinder fall.

Position the piece against a neutral wall in a study or living area, using the upper glazed shelves to display curated art books or ceramics alongside clean, contemporary lighting.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfiber cloth, apply a microcrystalline or beeswax polish once per year, and keep the piece away from direct radiators and prolonged sunlight to avoid timber movement.
