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.

Stationery boxes were crafted during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to store writing materials, including letter paper, envelopes, inkwells, pens, and sealing wax. They were essential desktop accessories in homes and offices before electronic communication.

These boxes are commonly constructed from high-grade woods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, often finished with brass escutcheons, side carrying handles, and internal dividers lined with velvet or leather.

Authentic period examples generally display hand-cut dovetail joints, period-correct brassware with natural oxidisation, original lock mechanisms, and evidence of genuine timber shrinkage or age-related patination.

Designers frequently position stationery boxes on executive desks, library consoles, or sideboards to add warm wood tones and historical texture while offering concealed storage for contemporary odds and ends.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the timber. Keep the item away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to prevent warping or splitting.
