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

A barrel back corner cupboard features a concave, curved interior back designed to fit flush into the corner of a room, originally crafted during the 18th century for displaying china and glassware.

These cupboards were primarily constructed using hardwoods such as mahogany or oak for the outer frame, with pine or softwoods used for secondary backboards, frequently finished with decorative hand-painted interiors.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-planed timber backboards, original wrought iron or brass hardware, and natural signs of age such as wood shrinkage or wear on painted linings.

Positioning the unit in an underutilised dining room or living room corner creates vertical architectural interest while offering concealed storage and an open display focal point.

Clean surfaces gently using a soft dry microfibre cloth, avoiding liquid solvents or harsh abrasive polishes that could damage original distemper paint or delicate shellac finishes.
