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

A barrister stacking bookcase, also known as a lawyers or sectional bookcase, originated in the late nineteenth century and consists of independent, stackable shelf units with lift-and-slide glazed doors designed to allow easy transportation of legal libraries.

These pieces are typically constructed from fine hardwoods such as solid mahogany or oak, featuring glass panel doors fitted with brass knobs and wooden track or metal scissor mechanisms.

Authentic examples often display maker marks or metal trade labels inside the individual tiers, dovetail or tongue-and-groove joinery, original brass hardware, and inter-locking wooden alignment strips between sections.

Position the cabinet in a study or living space to display books, framed art, and decorative ceramics, utilising the glass doors to provide clean visual structure while protecting contents from dust.

Dust the timber surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth, clean the glass panels using non-abrasive sprays, and apply high-quality beeswax polish along the grain occasionally to preserve the woods natural finish.
