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 buffet deux corps is a traditional French storage cabinet constructed in two stacked sections, consisting of a lower cupboard base topped by a slightly recessed upper cupboard.

Regional cabinetmakers in 18th-century France predominantly utilised native hardwoods such as ash, elm, walnut, and fruitwoods, often secured with hand-cut joinery and mortise and tenon construction.

Authentic pieces display hand-hewn back panels, hand-forged steel or iron fittings such as long fiche hinges and long escutcheons, and natural wear patterns consistent with historical usage.

A substantial cabinet serves as a focal point in a dining room, kitchen, or living space, pairing effectively with neutral wall palettes and minimalist upholstery to highlight historical woodwork.

Dust regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually to protect the original finish, keeping the timber away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture.
