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.

Originating in the late 18th century and widely produced throughout the Victorian era, a Canterbury is a low piece of occasional furniture featuring divided partitions designed to hold sheet music or periodicals, frequently constructed with an upper work top surface.

Mid-19th-century Canterburys were predominantly constructed using solid walnut or burr walnut veneers, featuring hand-carved fretwork, turned spindles, dovetail drawer joints, and brass castors.

Authentic mid-Victorian examples feature hand-cut drawer joinery, natural wood patination, hand-carved pierced frets, turned corner posts with finials, and solid timber secondary woods rather than modern plywood.

This versatile piece functions effectively as an occasional side table beside a sofa or armchair, serving as a lamp stand while utilising the lower divisions to organize books, periodicals, or vinyl records.

Dust regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the wood veneer, ensuring the item is positioned away from direct sunlight and central heating sources.
