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 chest on chest, also known as a tallboy, is a case furniture piece featuring two stacked drawer sections designed to maximise vertical storage. Popularised in the 18th century during the Georgian period, it typically consists of an upper section mounted on a slightly wider base section.

Authentic Georgian examples were predominantly constructed from dense Cuban or Honduran mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, pine or oak drawer linings, and cast brass oval or swan-neck handles.

Key indicators include hand-sawn drawer bottoms with horizontal grain direction, hand-cut dovetailing, original brass keyhole escutcheons, and signs of hand-planing on the back panel boards.

Place this tall piece against a neutral feature wall to highlight its rich wood tones, pairing it with contemporary artwork or architectural lamps to balance traditional proportions.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and applying high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the timber finish.
