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

A chest on chest, also known as a tallboy, is a chest of drawers constructed in two separate stacking sections to provide ample vertical storage space while remaining easy to move.

These pieces were typically constructed using solid native English or Welsh oak, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer linings and cast brass swan-neck handles.

Authentic pieces feature period details such as hand-sawn timber backing, hand-cut dovetail joints, original brass backplates with iron nuts, and natural wood shrinkage along the grain.

Position the chest on chest as a statement piece in a hallway, bedroom, or dining space, balancing its substantial visual weight against neutral walls and simple contemporary decorative accents.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a dry cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping it away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking.
