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

Design from this movement emphasises functional form, visible craftsmanship, and structural integrity, often incorporating simplified classical motifs, rich figured timber veneers, and contrasting ebonised detailing.

Burr walnut features highly figured wood slices harvested from tree growths, carefully arranged as symmetrical veneers over solid timber frames to create intricate visual grain patterns.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut joinery, turned decorative pillars or columns, adjustable shelf support systems using wooden strips or metal pins, and original timber backboards.

Position the low bookcase along a wall or beneath architectural features to function as a low sideboard alternative, pairing the warm timber tones with contemporary ceramics, framed artwork, or desk accessories.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish periodically, avoiding direct sunlight and extreme humidity changes to prevent veneer lifting or fading.
