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 polychrome leather casket is a decorative storage container crafted with a wooden body clad in leather that features multi-coloured painted details and gilded tooling, prominent in 19th-century French artisan workshops.

These boxes typically feature a solid timber frame covered with tanned hide, decorated using gold leaf, mineral pigments, and brass hardware such as lock plates and hinges.

Authentic pieces display hand-tooled impressions with slight variations in blind stamping, genuine patina on gilding, period-appropriate lock mechanisms, and natural wear patterns along edges and corners.

A decorative leather box functions as an accent piece on a sideboard top, bookshelf, or executive desk, serving both visual interest and practical storage for small items.

Keep the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent drying and cracking; gently dust with a soft microfibre cloth and avoid water or chemical solvents that could strip the original paint and gilding.
