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.

During the Victorian period, cabinetmakers used highly figured burr walnut veneers cut from tree growths displaying intricate grain patterns, typically arranging them in breakfront or triple-section wardrobe configurations.

Craftsmen traditionally constructed these pieces using solid pine or oak carcases covered in hand-cut burr walnut veneers, incorporating hand-dovetailed joints, solid back panels, and silvered glass mirror plates.

Authentic 19th-century examples feature hand-cut dovetails, irregular back panels with hand-saw marks, period brass locks, and subtle surface imperfections in the original mirror glass.

Position the wardrobe as a focal architectural feature in a dressing room or master bedroom, balancing its visual weight with neutral wall tones and contemporary soft furnishings.

Maintain burr walnut veneer by keeping the furniture away from direct heat sources and sunlight, dusting with a microfiber cloth, and applying beeswax polish annually.
