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.
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.
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.

Treen refers to small, functional household items made entirely of turned or carved wood, produced before the widespread adoption of domestic metals and ceramics. Salt cellars were essential table accessories designed to hold loose salt for daily dining.

Treen salts were typically turned on a wood lathe from dense hardwoods such as fruitwood, sycamore, boxwood, or oak. The turned construction frequently incorporates incised moulding or reeded line details along the body and pedestal foot.

Authentic period pieces display subtle asymmetry caused by natural wood shrinkage across the grain over time. They also exhibit smooth surface wear around handling areas and a deep, mellow patina built up through historic wax polishing.

Small treen objects function well as accents when arranged on kitchen dressers, open shelving, or styled alongside books on a sideboard. They can also be repurposed as compact desk organisers for small paperclips or rings.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax paste sparingly to protect the timber finish. Keep wooden items away from direct heat sources, high humidity, and total immersion in water.
