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

Georgian chests of drawers typically feature symmetrical proportions, hand-cut dovetailed drawer construction, and decorative details such as bracket feet and brass drop handles.

Cabinetmakers utilised native hardwoods such as oak, walnut, and distinctively figured yew wood, often accented with cast brass handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints inside drawers, pine or oak secondary timber linings, subtle timber contraction marks, and original brass hardware with oxidisation.

Position the piece against a contemporary neutral wall backdrop, pairing its rich wood grain with understated modern lighting or framed artwork to create visual balance.

Keep the timber positioned away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber movement, dusting regularly with a microfibre cloth and applying beeswax periodically to protect the finish.
