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 Victorian music cabinet uses warm brown burr walnut with a visible grain, glass, and brass. Floral marquetry inlay decorates the top corners of the single glazed display door, while a brass gallery rail sits on top between turned bobbin finials, and the cabinet stands on a plinth base fitted with castors. Inside, multiple plate glass shelves hold items behind the door, which includes a working lock with its original key. It measures 92 cm high, 56 cm wide, and 34 cm deep. Placed in a living room, study, or empty corner, this piece serves as a display cabinet for collectibles and small items while adding period character to the space. The compact footprint makes it suitable for smaller rooms or tighter wall spaces while offering vertical storage behind glass.

FAQs

Designed during the nineteenth century, music cabinets were created to store sheet music organised by genre or composer alongside a parlour piano.

These cabinets were commonly constructed using walnut, mahogany, or rosewood veneers, featuring glass-glazed front doors, marquetry inlay, and brass gallery rails.

Authentic pieces feature period-correct joinery, natural wood grain patination, original brass fittings or casters, and hand-cut marquetry inlay around the door frames.

In contemporary settings, these compact cabinets function effectively as vinyl record storage units, hallway accent tables, or bedside storage cabinets.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry microfibre cloth, apply beeswax polish sparingly along the grain, and avoid positioning the item near radiators or direct sunlight.
