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.

Popularised during the British Regency period, a sarcophagus wine cooleror cellaretteis a wooden chest built in the tapered form of an ancient sarcophagus, traditionally used to hold ice and chill wine bottles in formal dining rooms.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed from solid mahogany or flame mahogany veneers over oak, featuring interior lead linings to contain moisture, hand-cut dovetail jointing, brass keyhole escutcheons, and carved lion paw feet.

Look for signs of genuine age such as natural timber oxidisation, hand-planed inner panels, irregular dovetail joints, and evidence or remnants of original lead foil liners designed for waterproofing.

Originally designed to sit beneath or beside a dining room sideboard, these historic chests now serve as unusual side tables, low storage units, or standalone architectural accents in living spaces and foyers.

Maintain the original finish by dusting regularly with a soft cloth, applying high-grade beeswax polish annually, and keeping the timber away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent shrinkage or warping.
