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

Emerging in the 19th century, these pieces were designed to maximize interior space by utilising unused room corners. They often feature open shelving, mirror backings, and detailed woodwork to reflect light and display collectibles.

Craftsmen utilised high-grade timbers such as mahogany, rosewood, and walnut, employing hand-cut dovetail joints and mortise and tenon joinery. Accent features frequently included bevelled mirror glass plates and hand-carved fretwork spandrels.

Stamped markings or metal trade plates bearing the name Edwards & Roberts are typically found on drawer edges or rear panels. Authentic examples exhibit precise joinery, high-density timber, and detailed carving or marquetry.

Positioning a pair of corner cabinets in opposing corners balances room symmetry while offering functional display space. They work effectively in dining rooms, foyers, or living areas to host glassware, ceramics, or small sculptures.

Dust surfaces regularly using a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish sparingly along the wood grain to maintain the finish. Keep pieces away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber warping and finish fading.
