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 primarily in the Brienz region of Switzerland during the nineteenth century, Black Forest carving is characterized by realistic depictions of wildlife, foliage, and naturalistic motifs executed in high relief.

Craftsmen predominantly utilised native European hardwoods, such as linden wood (lime wood) and walnut, chosen for their fine grain and suitability for intricate hand carving.

Authentic pieces demonstrate sharp detail, subtle hand-tool marks, natural wood grain variation, and an aged patina, along with historical hardware such as iron or brass lock mechanisms.

Positioning a carved wooden casket on a sideboard, desk, or bookshelf introduces organic texture and historical contrast into modern or traditional interior schemes.

Regular gentle dusting with a soft, dry brush keeps the detailed relief clean, while occasional application of high-quality microcrystalline wax protects the finish from moisture and drying.
