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.

George III walnut chests of drawers typically feature figured wood veneers, crossbanded borders, and brass hardware such as batwing or oval drop handles. They often utilise a classic two-short-over-three-long drawer configuration set upon bracket or turned feet.

The primary exterior structure was typically constructed from solid oak, pine, or walnut carcass wood overlaid with figured walnut veneers. Drawer linings were usually crafted from oak or pine using hand-cut dovetail joints, complemented by cast brass handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn drawer construction with uneven, thick dovetail joints and original oak or pine secondary timbers. Look for authentic wear around keyholes, hand-cut brass plates, and historical shrinkage marks along veneer seams.

A dark walnut chest creates visual weight when paired with contemporary neutral walls and modern lighting. Position it in a bedroom or hallway, layering minimalist ceramic accessories or structured mirrors above to contrast traditional woodwork with clean modern lines.

Dust regularly with a dry, lint-free microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade natural beeswax polish once or twice a year along the grain. Position the furniture away from direct heat sources and strong sunlight to prevent veneer cracking and wood fading.
