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.

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

Originating in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, washstands were designed to hold a wash basin and pitcher for personal hygiene in bedrooms prior to indoor plumbing. Victorian examples often incorporated marble tops to resist water damage and ceramic tiled splashbacks to protect surrounding walls.

These pieces were typically constructed from woods such as pine, oak, or mahogany, often featuring marble slabs for the tabletop surface. Decorative ceramic tiles and hand-painted or grain-painted finishes were frequently added to enhance visual appeal and durability.

Genuine period pieces display authentic age wear, hand-dovetailed drawer joints, and original cast brass handles or knobs. Painted examples often show natural surface crazing, wear along high-contact edges, and original ceramic splashback tiles consistent with late nineteenth-century manufacture.

In contemporary homes, a washstand functions effectively as a cloakroom vanity unit fitted with a basin, a hallway console table, or a decorative plant display table in a bathroom or conservatory space.

Preserve the painted finish by dusting regularly with a dry, soft cloth and avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or excessive moisture. Clean the marble top using a pH-neutral stone cleaner to prevent etching or staining the surface.
