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

Developed during the late 18th century, a waterfall bookcase features graduated open shelves that narrow in depth towards the top, typically set above a closed cupboard base.

Cabinetmakers predominantly used solid and veneered mahogany, frequently employing flame mahogany veneers on door panels alongside hand-cut dovetail construction.

Authentic period examples display hand-sawn wood, hand-cut joinery, original hardware fittings, secondary timber linings, and natural patination on unexposed surfaces.

Position the piece as a focal point in a living room, study, or hallway, dressing the open shelves with curated ceramics, art books, and decorative objects alongside traditional volumes.

Keep the furniture away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dust surfaces with a soft dry cloth, and periodically apply a high-quality beeswax polish to preserve the timber finish.
