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

French boxes from the Napoleon III period, spanning roughly 1852 to 1870, often featured rich exotic veneers such as kingwood or rosewood, embellished with geometric parquetry, finely chased ormolu mounts, and hand-painted porcelain plaques.

These caskets typically incorporated kingwood or tulipwood veneers over a hardwood core, accented with cast brass or gilt bronze mounts and central porcelain medallions.

Authentic pieces feature fine dovetail joinery, hand-chased gilt bronze fittings with natural oxidisation, original locks, and hand-painted details on porcelain inserts rather than modern transfer prints.

A small decorative casket functions well on a sideboard, dressing table, or bookshelf, serving as a functional container for small items while introducing historical warmth and texture.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity to prevent veneer lifting, dust gently with a soft dry cloth, and avoid harsh polishes on gilt bronze components.
