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 vanity box from the 19th century is a wooden storage case designed to hold cosmetics, grooming tools, or jewellery, often built with hinged lids and internal compartments.

Victorian vanity boxes were commonly constructed with decorative timber veneers like burr walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, often featuring brass or mother-of-pearl escutcheons and interior fabric linings.

Authentic pieces generally display hand-cut dovetail joinery, natural age-related oxidisation, period-correct lock mechanisms, and characteristic burr grain patterns.

A vanity box can be styled on a sideboard, desk, or bedside table, functioning as both decorative tabletop accent and practical storage for small objects.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and moisture, dust regularly using a dry microfiber cloth, and apply a natural beeswax polish periodically to maintain the surface.
