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 French commode is a low, wide chest of drawers introduced in late seventeenth-century France that quickly became a core piece of European storage furniture.

These pieces typically feature solid walnut framing with figured walnut veneers, fitted timber drawer lining, hand-cut dovetail joinery, and a fitted stone or marble top.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-saw marks on secondary timbers, hand-cut joinery, original iron locks, natural wood shrinkage on backing boards, and genuine surface patina.

Position the piece as a focal point in a hallway or bedroom, styling the top surface with modern framed artwork, decorative lamps, or ceramic vessels to create visual balance.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply natural beeswax sparingly along the wood grain annually, and wipe marble tops using non-acidic cleaners.
