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

A military campaign chest is a modular piece of storage furniture engineered to break down into two separate portable sections for transport by military officers during overseas deployments in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

These pieces were built using dense hardwoods such as teak, oak, or mahogany, reinforced with heavy brass corner straps and recessed flush handles to minimise damage during transport.

Authentic campaign chests feature a distinct structural split dividing the upper and lower halves, inset brass hardware that sits level with the timber surface, side carrying handles, and unscrewable turned feet.

A campaign chest functions well as a focal storage piece in a bedroom, hallway, or living room, contrasting cleanly against minimal architectural backgrounds while adding texture through warm timber and metalwork.

Dust the timber surfaces regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the wood grain annually, taking care to keep polish off the flush brass mountings.
