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 traditional French coiffeuse is a specialized grooming table featuring a central mirror, integrated drawers, and pedestals designed to house cosmetics and personal accessories. Popularized in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, these pieces often feature ornate hand-carved woodwork, elegant curves, and fitted candle sconces or lighting brackets.

High-end dressing tables from this period were crafted primarily from fine hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and rosewood. They frequently incorporated silvered plate glass mirrors, hand-cast brass mountings, fitted glass counter protectors, and velvet or silk upholstery on integrated footrests or stools.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints inside drawers, hand-carved asymmetrical ornamentation, and age-appropriate wear or desilverization on the original mirror glass. Unfinished drawer undersides and aged brass hardware fixings also indicate genuine nineteenth or early twentieth-century construction.

A substantial antique dressing table acts as a focal statement piece in a primary bedroom or dressing room. To balance its detailed woodwork, style the surrounding space with minimalist contemporary lighting, neutral wall paint, and subtle textile finishes.

Wood surfaces should be regularly dusted with a soft microfibre cloth and conditioned annually with beeswax to preserve the patina. Avoid harsh chemical sprays on the mirror glass, applying non-ammonia cleaner sparingly to a cloth rather than directly onto the mirror frame to prevent backing degradation.
