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.

Queen Anne style furniture, prominent in early eighteenth-century England, is characterised by graceful proportions, turned bun feet, and the extensive use of figured walnut veneers with featherbanded or crossbanded borders.

These pieces were typically constructed using a softwood or oak carcase, faced with patterned burr walnut veneers, incorporating inlaid featherbanding, brass drop handles, and double-domed mirrored cabinet doors.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, thick hand-cut veneers, historical plate glass mirrors with bevelled edges, and hand-forged iron or brass lock mechanisms.

A bureau bookcase functions as a focal architectural piece in a study, drawing room, or hallway, complemented by neutral wall finishes, contemporary art, and modern soft furnishings to balance the detailed woodwork.

Preserve burr walnut by dusting regularly with a dry soft cloth, applying a high-quality beeswax polish annually, placing the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and maintaining stable humidity levels.
