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

George I furniture (17141727) is defined by understated elegance, clean proportions, and the extensive use of figured walnut veneers. Pieces frequently feature bracket feet, feather banding, and brass drop handles.

Chests from this period typically feature a softwood or oak carcass veneered in figured or burr walnut. Secondary woods such as pine or oak were used for drawer linings, complemented by cast brass handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, oak or pine secondary drawer linings, original keyhole escutcheons, and evidence of hand-planing on back panels.

A period walnut chest functions well as a focal storage piece in an entryway, living room, or master bedroom, pairing effectively with neutral palettes and modern decorative lighting.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent veneer drying or fading.
