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.

An antique oak coffer is a wooden storage chest constructed with frame-and-panel joinery and a flat hinged lid, historically used for storing household linens, clothing, and valuables.

Traditional oak coffers were crafted from solid oak using mortise and tenon joints secured with wooden pegs, featuring relief-carved front panels and extended stile legs.

Authentic period coffers feature signs of hand-planed timber, irregular pegged joinery, hand-forged iron fittings, and dark natural oxidisation on unpolished surfaces.

An oak coffer can be positioned at the foot of a bed, placed in an entryway as a storage bench, or utilised as a low coffee table to introduce warmth and historical texture.

Regular dusting with a dry microfiber cloth and biannual applications of clear beeswax polish will maintain the timber lustre while protecting the wood from moisture changes.
