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.

This matching pair of nineteenth-century French corner cabinets reflects the Louis XV Revival style. Constructed from warm brown kingwood, each triangular cabinet displays intricate floral marquetry panels across the curved doors, complemented by gilt bronze ormolu mounts framing the edges and a decorative bronze flourish on the shaped apron above short cabriole feet. The top surface consists of red-brown Griotte Rouge Belge marble, following the contours of the piece. Each cabinet measures 83 cm high, 76 cm wide and 51 cm deep. Such cabinets suit placement in a living room, hallway or dining room, specifically designed to fit neatly into an empty corner while providing enclosed storage. The rich timber tones and polished marble surfaces integrate easily into traditional interior schemes, holding decorative items on top while keeping the interior contents hidden behind the single curved door. The combination of parquetry veneer and classical mounts gives these pieces a distinct continental character suited for period or eclectic spaces.

FAQs

An encoignure is a type of corner cabinet originating in 18th-century France, specifically designed to fit into the angle of two walls to maximise room space while providing enclosed storage.

These cabinets traditionally feature timber frameworks decorated with marquetry or parquetry veneers, cast gilt-bronze mounts, and custom-shaped marble tops.

Authentic pieces generally show hand-cut veneer joinery, chiseled gilt-bronze hardware with age-appropriate oxidisation, and marble tops shaped to follow the precise contours of the cabinet base.

A matching pair of corner cabinets can be placed in opposing corners of a room or flanking a doorway to create architectural balance and symmetrical storage.

Dust veneer surfaces regularly with a dry soft cloth, avoid direct heat sources to prevent wood shrinkage, and wipe marble tops immediately after spills to avoid staining.
