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

Ottoman and Levant-region woodwork is defined by dense geometric marquetry, incorporating micro-mosaic tessellation using materials such as mother-of-pearl, bone, camel bone, and contrasting woods set into dark hardwoods.

Craftsmen primarily used dense hardwoods such as walnut, olive wood, or cedar, which were inlaid with hand-cut mother-of-pearl shells, bone inserts, pewter wire, and ebony or fruitwood micro-mosaics.

Authentic period pieces exhibit natural variations in shell iridescence, hand-carved joinery, slight irregularities in geometric spacing, and age-related patination or oxidisation on uncovered wood surfaces.

An inlaid tabletop cabinet works well as a focal statement piece positioned on a neutral sideboard, console table, or within a minimalist shelving arrangement to showcase its complex geometric patterns.

Keep the item in a climate-controlled environment away from direct heat sources to prevent wood shrinkage, dust regularly with a soft dry cloth, and avoid liquid cleaners that can loosen organic adhesives.
