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

Originating in mid-to-late nineteenth-century France, these cabinets feature dark ebonised wood contrasted with exotic timber inlays, intricate gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts, and central hand-painted porcelain medallions, often flanked by curved glass side doors.

Construction typically utilises solid fruitwood or oak ebonised with black stain, decorated with marquetry inlays such as amboyna or walnut, cast brass or bronze mounts, glass panes, and ceramic or porcelain inserts.

Authentic period pieces show hand-cut joinery on drawers, aged oxidation on brass mounts, hand-chiseled detailing on cast bronze fittings, and genuine timber wear around doors and bases.

Position the cabinet against a neutral wall to highlight its detailed silhouette, anchoring the piece alongside minimalist modern artwork or structured ceramic vessels to blend historical detail with modern restraint.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply neutral bees wax to polished timber; avoid harsh polishing agents on bronze mounts or porcelain inserts to prevent chemical damage.
