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 in the early 18th century, oak dresser bases served as essential utility pieces in rural British households and country estates, providing storage and surface space for food preparation and serving.

These pieces were constructed from solid English oak, utilizing mortise and tenon joinery, peg construction, and hand-dovetailed drawer linings, usually accented with cast brass drop handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces feature signs of hand-planed timber, irregular dovetail joints, original wooden peg construction, and natural uneven wear or patination on the surface and brassware consistent with age.

Position the piece in an entryway or dining area as a sideboard, contrasting the dark oak timber with minimalist wall decor, modern table lamps, or neutral tone ceramics.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture to prevent splitting.
