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 canterbury is a mobile wooden stand featuring vertical partitions, originally designed in the late eighteenth century to hold sheet music or bound music volumes. Named after the Archbishop of Canterbury who commissioned the initial design, these pieces evolved into general publication and magazine racks.

Authentic late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century examples are typically constructed from dense mahogany with hand-dovetailed drawer linings. Features include slatted or concave divisions, turned corner posts terminating in finials, and brass cup castors secured to turned legs.

Examine the drawer construction for hand-sawn dovetails, period brass hardware, and hand-planed secondary timbers like oak or pine. Original brass castors, natural timber shrinkage along joints, and patinated surfaces consistent with late Georgian production assist in confirming period origin.

Place a canterbury beside an armchair or desk to organise contemporary oversized art books, periodicals, or vinyl records. The compact proportions make it a practical accent piece near a fireplace or within an open-plan living area.

Dust regularly with a soft cotton cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually to protect the original finish. Avoid direct exposure to heat sources or sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and veneer movement.
