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

An adjustable shaving stand is a piece of nineteenth-century grooming furniture designed with a mirror mounted on a vertical column, often incorporating a small table tier or compartment for holding razors and soap.

These stands were predominantly made from dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, combined with turned wood columns, brass telescoping height mechanisms, and mirrored glass.

Authentic period examples feature hand-turned columns, brass thumb-screws or telescopic height adjustments, carved tripod feet, and original silvered glass mirrors showing natural age patina or faint oxidisation.

A shaving stand works well as a decorative accent piece in a modern dressing room, ensuite bathroom, or bedroom nook, adding vertical height and warmth through polished timber tones.

Dust the wood regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax periodically along the grain, while cleaning the glass with a mild mirror cleaner applied directly to a cloth rather than the frame.
