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 19th-century side cabinet is executed in the Sheraton style from warm brown mahogany with contrasting satinwood and boxwood marquetry. The bow-fronted body has a demi-lune top above a frieze decorated with a Vitruvian scroll pattern. Three panel doors display classical marquetry figures, bellflower swags, and musical instruments, complemented by keyhole escutcheons and square tapered legs terminating in spade feet. The piece measures 106 cm high, 153 cm wide, and 53 cm deep. Inside, the cupboards provide storage space behind the three locking doors. The piece fits well in a grand hallway, a formal dining room, or a drawing room to display decorative items or store tableware.

FAQs

Neo-classical and Sheraton Revival styles are characterized by elegant geometric proportions, straight or gently curved lines, and refined timber veneers. They frequently incorporate classical marquetry motifs such as urns, swags, husks, and classical figures executed in contrasting woods.

Cabinets from this era feature solid mahogany frames overlaid with high-grade mahogany and satinwood veneers. Inlays were meticulously hand-cut from contrasting timbers such as boxwood, ebony, and satinwood, assembled onto oak or pine carcass backings with hand-cut dovetail joinery.

Authentic period pieces exhibit subtle irregularities in the hand-cut veneer, natural wood shrinkage lines along joints, and aged patination. Hardware often includes period brass locks and hinges showing light oxidisation, while the underside and back panels reveal hand-sawn timber marks.

Position the cabinet as a focal point against a neutral backdrop to highlight the rich wood grain and detailed marquetry. Pair it with contemporary artwork, understated table lamps, or minimal ceramic vessels to create a balanced contrast between antique craftsmanship and modern design.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight, central heating vents, and damp environments to prevent veneer lifting or wood movement. Clean surfaces with a soft, dry cotton cloth, and apply a thin coat of high-quality beeswax paste annually to nourish the wood finish.
