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.

Dutch marquetry furniture from this era is recognised for its elaborate wood inlays depicting floral garlands, urns, birds, and foliage. Craftsmen typically utilized contrasting veneers such as boxwood, fruitwood, and walnut over a sturdy pine or oak carcase to create intricate decorative patterns.

These chests were primarily constructed using walnut and oak, often incorporating additional fruitwoods for the fine marquetry details. The internal drawer linings were frequently built from solid oak, complemented by cast brass handles, escutcheon plates, and decorative mounts.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut marquetry veneers with slight variations in piece fitting, natural oxidisation in the wood finish, and period-correct joinery such as hand-sawn dovetails. Original secondary timber, such as oak drawer sides, and period brassware with age-related patina also help verify authenticity.

Position the chest as a focal point in an entryway, living area, or bedroom against a neutral or deep-toned wall. Pair the ornate floral pattern with understated decorative accents, such as a contemporary table lamp or simple ceramics, to balance the visual weight of the inlay work.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year. Keep the piece away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high-humidity areas to prevent the delicate veneer from drying, lifting, or fading.
