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

Originating as one of the earliest forms of wooden storage furniture, coffers were used from the medieval period through the 17th century to store textiles, valuables, and household linens. Typically constructed with joined oak panels, they served both functional storage and seating purposes in traditional homes.

Traditional period coffers were crafted using mortise and tenon joinery secured with wooden pegs rather than metal fasteners. They feature panelled sides and tops to accommodate timber movement, often decorated with hand-carved friezes, fluting, or geometric motifs.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-hewn oak timber showing uneven saw marks, peg joinery, and natural shrinkage around iron escutcheons or hinges. Look for genuine oxidisation in the wood surrounding iron fittings, original hand-carved details, and smoothed patination on high-wear surfaces.

An antique oak chest functions well at the foot of a bed, as a central coffee table, or positioned in an entryway for hallway storage. Incorporating tactile textiles, ceramics, or contemporary lighting nearby creates an engaging juxtaposition between historical woodwork and modern aesthetics.

Preserve the natural timber patina by regularly dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying a quality beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the furniture away from direct heat sources and damp environments to prevent wood shrinkage, cracking, or warping.
