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.
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.
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.

Treen literally means of a tree and refers to small domestic objects made entirely of wood. Prior to the widespread manufacture of metal, ceramic, and plastic alternatives, turned treen provided functional household items such as spice pots, string boxes, and pill containers.

Boxwood is exceptionally dense, fine-grained, and durable, making it ideal for precision woodturning on a lathe. Its smooth grain allowed turners to carve tight-fitting threads, precise lids, and intricate decorative detailing without splintering.

Authentic 19th-century treen displays natural shrinkage marks, uneven oxidisation, and surface wear consistent with age and handling. Lathe marks on the underside and smooth, darkened patination in handled areas further indicate genuine period manufacture.

Small treen containers function as tactile accents when grouped on bookshelves, console tables, or desk surfaces. Arranging items of varying heights and wood tones creates an organic curio arrangement that complements both modern and traditional schemes.

Preserve boxwood treen by keeping it in a stable environment away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to prevent timber splitting. Light dusting followed by an occasional coat of clear beeswax paste polish maintains the protective surface layer.
