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

Art Deco furniture, emerging in the 1920s and 1930s, is characterised by geometric forms, bold clean lines, and polished timber veneered surfaces such as walnut, rosewood, or macassar ebony.

Craftsmen typically utilised high-grade timber veneers, including walnut, mahogany, and zebrawood, paired with smooth sliding glass panels and solid hardwood frames.

Authentic pieces feature geometric proportions, crossbanded veneer edge details, smooth original glass sliders without modern rollers, and traditional period construction methods.

Pair the cabinet with neutral backdrop tones, statement modern ceramics, or brass accents to highlight the geometric grain patterns and warm timber tones.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft cloth, apply high-quality beeswax twice yearly along the wood grain, and clean glass panels with a non-abrasive glass cleaner applied directly to a microfibre cloth.
