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 teapoy is a small piece of furniture produced predominantly during the 18th and 19th centuries, designed specifically to store and prepare tea. It typically consists of a secure container or box mounted on a central pedestal base.

Early 19th-century teapoys were constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut. They frequently feature mahogany veneers, brass lock mechanisms, and interior foil-lined compartments for preserving loose tea leaves.

Authentic Regency teapoys often exhibit period-appropriate features such as sarcophagus-shaped tops, hand-carved reeding or acanthus leaf motifs, hand-cut dovetail joinery inside the internal caddies, and original brass escutcheons.

A teapoy functions as a compact accent table or decorative focal point in living rooms, hallways, or reading nooks, providing architectural interest alongside modern or traditional seating.

Dust the timber regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish once or twice per year. Keep the item away from direct heat sources, bright sunlight, and damp conditions to prevent cracking or timber warping.
