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

Named in honour of the Duke of Wellington following his victory at Waterloo in 1815, this style emerged in the early 19th century as a compact, tall chest designed to offer secure vertical storage.

Victorian Wellington chests were typically constructed from rich mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, featuring secondary internal woods such as pine or oak for the drawer linings and hand-cut dovetail joints.

Authentic period examples feature a distinctive hinged side pilaster or flap with a keyhole, which secures all the drawers in place simultaneously, along with hand-carved decorative corbels and original turned drawer knobs.

Because of its narrow footprint and vertical proportion, a Wellington chest fits effectively into tight alcoves, narrow hallways, or quiet reading corners, providing functional storage without overwhelming floor space.

Dust mahogany surfaces regularly using a soft microfibre cloth and apply a quality natural beeswax polish twice a year to maintain the timber finish while keeping the item clear of direct radiator heat.
