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

Originating in the 19th century, a Canterbury whatnot is a multi-functional piece of occasional furniture combining vertical partitioned racks for sheet music or periodicals with flat upper shelves for display.

These pieces were commonly constructed from cabinet woods such as burr walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, featuring hand-turned spindle supports, dovetailed drawer joinery, and brass castors.

Authentic Victorian examples exhibit period construction methods, including hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, original brass castors, natural wood patination, and hand-lathed turned columns.

A Canterbury whatnot functions effectively as an occasional side table beside a reading chair or sofa, offering organized storage for books and magazines while supporting table lamps or decorative objects on top.

Maintain burr walnut surfaces by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying beeswax periodically, ensuring the item is positioned away from direct heat sources and sunlight to preserve the veneer.
