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.
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.
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.

The Cotswold School emerged during the Arts and Crafts movement, emphasizing hand craftsmanship, exposed timber joinery, and functional design without excessive surface ornament. Artisans preferred native British hardwoods, particularly oak, allowed to showcase natural grain patterns.

These cabinets were primarily constructed from solid English oak, featuring hand-blown glass panes secured with timber glazing bars. Internal shelving was framed in matching oak, often finished with natural wax rather than heavy varnishes.

Authentic pieces feature visible structural details such as exposed dovetail joints, gouged or chamfered edges, exposed tenons, and field-panelled doors. Handles and latches are frequently handmade in wrought iron, latten, or turned timber.

Position the piece against a neutral backdrop to highlight the rich oak grain. Mix vintage hardback books with contemporary studio ceramics and structured glassware on the upper shelves to balance historical weight with modern minimalism.

Dust the wood regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year to maintain the protective patination, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat radiators and damp exterior walls.
