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 boudoir grand piano is an acoustic piano designed primarily for domestic drawing rooms and private salons. Measuring approximately six feet in length, it balances tonal output with a frame suitable for residential interiors.

Pianos from this period typically feature solid wood and veneered cases, such as rosewood, walnut, or mahogany, over an inner frame of cast iron. Keyboards were clad in natural materials, with brass used for pedals, hinges, and castors.

Authentic nineteenth-century Bechstein instruments display the manufacturer name gilded on the fallboard or cast into the iron frame. A serial number stamped on the soundboard or frame allows precise dating against factory production archives.

Position the piano as a primary focal point away from direct sunlight, radiators, or damp external walls. Orient the curved side toward the main seating area to maximize acoustics and visual proportion.

Maintain a stable room humidity level between forty and sixty percent to prevent wood movement and soundboard cracking. Dust the casing with a soft microfibre cloth, polish lightly with specialised furniture wax, and arrange professional pitch tuning bi-annually.
