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

Originating in 18th-century Wales, a coffer bach is a compact wooden chest traditionally given as a wedding gift or used to store valuable household linens, silver, and personal items within domestic settings.

Authentic examples are typically constructed from native hardwoods such as oak or fruitwood, featuring pegged mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved fielded panels, and cast brass handles.

Key indicators include hand-planed timber surfaces, wooden peg joinery, original wire or strap hinges, deep natural oxidation on unseen interior surfaces, and period-correct drawer construction.

A small period chest serves effectively as a grounded accent on sideboards, hallway consoles, or deep window sills, introducing historical texture and contrast against modern interior paint schemes.

Maintain the surface patina by keeping timber away from direct heat sources and radiator proximity, dusting with a soft lint-free cloth, and applying a thin coat of natural beeswax polish annually.
