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.

Historically used from the medieval period through the 17th century, coffers served as the primary storage vessel in households for textiles, valuables, and clothing. Constructed from durable hardwoods like oak, these chests were designed to withstand transport and daily utility before dedicated wardrobes and chests of drawers became widespread.

Early oak coffers were constructed using solid timber joined with mortise and tenon joints secured by wooden dowel pegs. They frequently feature carved panel fronts, solid plank tops, and hand-forged wrought iron lock plates and hinges.

Authentic period coffers exhibit signs of age such as uneven hand-hewn timber surfaces, hand-carved decorative friezes, and original iron hardware with historical oxidisation. Look for pegged joinery rather than modern screws, as well as natural wear consistent with centuries of use.

An antique coffer functions effectively at the foot of a bed for linen storage, as a characterful coffee table, or placed in a hallway to serve as both an entryway bench and hidden storage.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying a high-quality clear beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and maintain consistent humidity to prevent the oak panels from shrinking or cracking.
