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 19th-century French polychrome leather casket is a small decorative storage box featuring embossed leather stretched over a wooden frame, decorated with multi-coloured pigments and gold leaf detailing.

These boxes were typically constructed with a solid timber core covered in fine calfskin or goat hide, detailed with hand-tooled gilding, polychrome paints, and finished with brass or iron lock mechanisms.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-stamped maker signatures or foundry marks, fine age-appropriate patina to the leather, precise metal escutcheons, and genuine wear on the gilded and painted highlights.

Place the casket on an office desk, sideboard, or bookshelf to serve as a tactile decorative accent or functional storage container for smaller personal items.

Display the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the leather from drying or cracking, and dust gently using a clean, soft, dry microfibre cloth without liquid polishers.
