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

The 18th century, particularly the Queen Anne and early Georgian eras, is considered a significant period for walnut furniture. Cabinetmakers favoured walnut for its grain patterns, warm tones, and suitability for detailed inlay, decorative marquetry, or pyrography techniques.

18th-century chests typically featured solid or veneered walnut over pine or oak carcasses, assembled with hand-cut dovetail joints. Secondary timbers formed drawer linings, while bracket feet and solid brass drop handles provided structural support and decorative functionality.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-sawn drawer construction, irregular dovetails, brass escutcheons or handles displaying natural oxidisation, and visible age-related patination across the timber surfaces.

A traditional walnut chest serves as an anchor piece in contemporary spaces, pairing well with neutral wall palettes, modern artwork, or layered textural accessories to create visual contrast.

Preserve the timber finish by placing the chest away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and applying a high-quality beeswax sparingly to protect the wood grain.
