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.

A Canterbury is a portable item of furniture incorporating vertical dividers designed for storing sheet music, magazines, or newspapers, originally named after the Archbishop of Canterbury in the late 18th century.

Late 19th-century Aesthetic Movement pieces were constructed primarily using fire-scorched or natural bamboo poles, often combined with lacquered wood panels, woven matting, or leatherette inserts.

Authentic Victorian bamboo furniture features characteristic heat-burnt tortoiseshell patterning, hand-fitted joinery, wooden or metal end caps on exposed bamboo ends, and natural signs of age to lacquered surfaces.

Place the rack beside a sofa or reading chair to store periodicals and books, or use it in an entrance hall or conservatory as a decorative storage accent.

Dust the structure regularly using a soft dry brush, position away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking in the cane stems, and apply a light coat of clear beeswax occasionally to protect the finish.
