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.

This early 19th-century Victorian breakfront dresser base is constructed from burr walnut and oak with a warm brown timber colour and natural grain figuring. The substantial piece stands on a flush plinth base and incorporates six cabinet doors decorated with arched recessed panels, complemented by carved wooden corbels positioned along the upper moulding. A dark leather insert tops the surface, framed by traditional wooden edges. Measuring 84 cm high, 328 cm wide, and 52 cm deep, this long credenza provides extensive concealed storage. The substantial proportions and classic timber finish suit a grand dining room, an extensive hallway, or a traditional living space as a low sideboard for media or display use.

FAQs

Originally developed as the lower section of a kitchen or dining room dresser, a dresser base functions as a low storage cabinet or sideboard featuring cupboards, drawers, or a combination of both.

Craftspeople typically constructed these pieces using solid oak or pine carcasses veneered with highly figured burr walnut, featuring hand-dovetailed joinery and solid wooden plinths.

Authentic 19th-century examples display natural wood shrinkage, original brass lock mechanisms, hand-cut joinery inside the drawers, and subtle variations in hand-carved decorative details.

Position the piece in a spacious hallway or dining room as a focal credenza, balancing its substantial visual weight with large-scale contemporary artwork or a mirror mounted directly above it.

Keep the furniture away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent veneer movement, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the natural grain to maintain timber hydration.
