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

Anglo-Indian style emerged during British colonial rule in India, combining traditional Western furniture silhouettes with native Indian carving techniques, motif patterns, and indigenous timbers such as teak and rosewood.

These items are typically constructed from dense tropical hardwoods like teak or rosewood and feature decorative inlays made from bone, mother-of-pearl, ivory, or fine brass wire set into intricate floral and geometric patterns.

Authentic period inlay exhibits hand-cut precision, slight natural variations in the inlay material, precise channel engraving, and signs of age such as slight shrinkage of the surrounding timber or patinated metal wire.

An inlaid serving tray can be styled on a coffee table or sideboard as a decorative catch-all, anchoring barware, decanters, or small ceramic vessels to add texture and historical interest to modern spaces.

Maintain the item by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, avoiding exposure to standing water or high heat, and applying a microcrystalline wax sparingly to preserve the timber and prevent loose inlay elements.
