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.

Georgian chests of drawers typically feature symmetrical proportions, a two-over-three drawer layout, and dense Cuban or Honduran mahogany timber. Construction usually includes hand-cut dovetails, brass swan-neck handles, and bracket feet.

Primary surfaces were constructed from solid mahogany or rich mahogany veneers. Internal drawer linings and carcasses often utilised secondary woods such as English oak or pine, fitted with cast brass hardware.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-sawn drawer bottoms, irregular hand-cut dovetail joints, and naturally aged timber with original patination. Hand-forged iron nails and cast brass keyhole escutcheons with genuine wear are additional markers.

Positioning a dark mahogany chest against neutral wall tones highlights the warm wood timber and brass detailing. Combining the piece with contemporary lighting, modern ceramics, or abstract artwork creates a balanced, layered aesthetic.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year. Keep the piece away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to protect the wood finish.
