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 bookcases feature geometric silhouettes, streamlined profiles, and symmetry, popularised during the 1920s and 1930s as a modern alternative to traditional revival styles.

Craftsmen predominantly used figured wood veneers such as walnut, mahogany, and maple applied over solid timber frames, often accented with moulded edges and solid timber block feet.

Authentic pieces exhibit heavy solid construction, hand-cut joinery, high-grade figure veneers, and smooth architectural stepped or moulded edges characteristic of early 20th-century design.

Position a low open bookcase along a long wall or beneath a window sill, serving as a functional surface for ceramics or artwork while holding oversized art books in the compartments below.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply natural beeswax annually along the grain to protect the timber polish, keeping the object away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
