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

Originating from the mid-to-late 18th century, these pieces feature simple, proportioned lines, moulded cornices, and fixed horizontal shelves designed to hold ceramics and pewter in country kitchens.

They were predominantly crafted from English oak using traditional joinery methods, including mortise and tenon joints, hand-planed timbers, and hand-cut mouldings.

Authentic pieces display evidence of hand-tooling, original wooden peg or hand-wrought iron fixings, natural oxidisation on untouched surfaces, and wear consistent with historic usage along shelf grooves.

Mount it on a plain wall in a dining space or kitchen to display contemporary ceramics, artwork, or glassware, creating visual contrast between traditional joinery and modern decor.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain to protect the timber and retain the existing finish.
