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

Spiral library steps originated in the eighteenth century to allow access to upper shelves in private libraries with high ceilings, featuring a compact footprint and central column support.

These steps were typically crafted from hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, often featuring gilt-embossed leather inserts on the treads and brass fittings.

Authentic pieces display signs of period craftsmanship, such as hand-turned spindle supports, natural wear on original leather surfaces, and hand-joined wooden elements.

Place them in a reading corner beside a bookcase, use them as an accent display stand for plants or art objects, or position them alongside a high desk.

Clean the timber with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax periodically, while treating the leather treads with a specialised leather conditioner to prevent cracking.
