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 Georgian dresser base is a low, wide wooden storage unit featuring drawers set above long exposed legs, originally crafted during the 18th century for utilitarian storage and food preparation in British country homes.

These pieces were commonly constructed using solid native British hardwoods such as elm, oak, or fruitwood, joined with hand-cut dovetails, wood pegs, and fitted with brass drop handles and escutcheons.

Authentic Georgian dresser bases exhibit hand-sawn timber marks on back panels, hand-cut irregular dovetail joints inside drawers, historical wear around keyholes, and deep timber patination acquired over centuries.

A Georgian dresser base serves as an effective console table in an entryway or dining area, balanced by hanging large-scale contemporary artwork or a gilded mirror directly above the top surface.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying clear beeswax sparingly once or twice per year, while positioning the timber away from direct radiators to avoid movement.
