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.

Campaign trunks were developed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries for British military officers who required durable, portable luggage for overseas deployments. Designed to withstand transport on ships, carts, and pack animals, these trunks featured reinforced corners and heavy iron fittings.

These trunks were typically constructed from robust hardwoods such as teak, mahogany, or pine, chosen for resistance to warping and insect damage. Heavy wrought iron or brass corner brackets, metal bands, and side drop handles were fitted to protect the timber during transit.

Authentic pieces feature structural reinforcements such as metal corner straps, recessed or heavy-duty iron drop handles, and dovetail joinery. Original painted finishes often display historical wear, paint abrasion, or stencilled owner name details on the lid or front.

A campaign trunk serves as a functional focal point when repurposed as a central coffee table in a living room or placed at the foot of a bed. Its rugged industrial aesthetic pairs well with leather upholstery, natural textiles, and neutral colour palettes.

Dust the surface gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth to avoid flaking original paint or stencilling. Keep the item in a dry environment with stable humidity levels, and treat iron fittings with a light application of microcrystalline wax to prevent oxidisation.
