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.

Historically used across East Asia, these compact wooden cabinets were designed to store personal valuables, documents, and calligraphy equipment, often featuring decorative brass mounts for both reinforcement and aesthetic appeal.

These pieces are commonly crafted from dense hardwoods such as rosewood, elm, or camphor, paired with hand-cut and etched brass fittings that serve as corner protectors, hinges, and central lockplates.

Authentic examples often exhibit traditional joinery without metal nails, natural wear around handles, hand-engraved motifs on the metalwork, and smooth oxidisation on the interior surfaces and brass hardware.

A Chinese brass-mounted cabinet functions well as a focal accent piece on a sideboard, console table, or desk, contrasting rich dark wood tones against neutral contemporary backdrops.

Preserve the finish by wiping wood surfaces with a dry microfibre cloth and applying natural wax sparingly, while avoiding harsh chemical cleaners on the brass mounts to protect their patina.
