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

A bowfront chest of drawers features a gently convex, outward-curving front facade. Popularised during the late Georgian and Regency periods, the style offers additional interior depth while introducing softer architectural lines to interior spaces.

Historically, these chests were constructed from solid oak or oak veneers over secondary timbers such as pine. Drawers were fitted with hand-cut dovetailed joints and mounted with cast brass drop handles or teardrop pulls.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-saw marks on drawer backs, uneven dovetail joints, and age-related oxidisation on original brass hardware. Secondary drawer linings usually show age-appropriate contraction and tonal variation in the timber.

Position the piece as a focal point against muted paint palettes to contrast the rich wood grain. Complement the warm timber by styling the top surface with contemporary stoneware, framed artwork, or minimal lighting.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish twice annually to maintain timber moisture. Keep the chest away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent timber shrinkage or cracking.
