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

During the 18th century, candle boxes were mounted on kitchen or living area walls to store tallow or beeswax candles, protecting them from moisture, heat, and pests.

These items were typically constructed from local hardwoods such as oak, walnut, or pine, featuring hand-dovetailed or pegged joinery with sliding or hinged lids.

Authentic period examples display hand-sawn timber marks, natural wear around the suspension hole, timber shrinkage, and oxidisation around any metal fasteners or nails.

A wall-hanging candle box functions as a textured accent piece in a kitchen, hallway, or alcove, either displayed as standalone folk art or used to hold dried botanical arrangements.

Clean the surface gently using a soft dry cloth to remove dust, and apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish annually while keeping the item away from direct heat sources.
