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

Furniture from this period features functional forms, visible joinery, and an emphasis on native timbers like oak, avoiding ornamental carving in favour of clean architectural lines.

Traditional pieces utilise quarter-sawn oak, mortise and tenon frame joints, dovetail drawer assembly, and structural stretchers to maintain stability over time.

Key indicators include hand-planed surfaces, exposed timber pegs, dark wood drawer pulls, chamfered leg edges, and precise dovetail joints inside drawers.

Position the piece against a neutral wall in a hallway or living room, styling the upper surface with modern stoneware, books, or a simple brass lamp.

Apply a small amount of beeswax polish annually using a soft cloth, keeping the wood away from direct radiators or damp conditions to prevent timber movement.
