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 low, compartmentalised piece of mobile furniture created in the late eighteenth century, originally designed to store sheet music, bound volumes, and manuscripts.

Early nineteenth-century Canterburys were predominantly crafted from dense mahogany or rosewood, often featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, boxwood stringing inlay, turned leg details, and brass castors for mobility.

Authentic Regency and Georgian pieces feature hand-carved division slats, original brass castors secured with brass cups, hand-dovetailed drawer linings, and natural age-related oxidisation on the timber finish.

While historically used for sheet music, an antique Canterbury functions effectively in modern living spaces as a magazine rack, vinyl record storage holder, or occasional side piece alongside a sofa or armchair.

Dust regularly using a soft dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the timber grain periodically; keep the item away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent wood shrinkage.
