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

Oak coffers date back to medieval times when they served primarily as secure storage for valuables, documents, and textiles before the widespread use of wardrobes and chests of drawers.

Authentic period coffers are constructed from solid English oak, often joined using traditional mortise and tenon joints, pegged with wooden dowels, and featuring hand-panelled construction.

Authentication relies on examining tool marks, hand-cut joinery, timber shrinkage, oxidisation patterns, and the presence of genuine historical wear rather than machine tooling.

This piece works effectively as a functional anchor at the foot of a bed, an entryway storage solution, or a contrasting texture against minimalist modern architecture.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct heat sources, and occasionally treating the timber with traditional beeswax to nourish the wood.
