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 shaped front chest of drawers, often referred to as a block front or bow-front commode, features a cabinet facade with contoured, curved, or recessed wooden panels across the drawer fronts rather than a flat surface.

Chests from this era were primarily constructed using solid oak or oak veneers over softwood carcases, secured with hand-cut dovetail joints, wood pegging, and fitted with brass keyhole escutcheons and drop or ring handles.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints inside the drawers, irregular tool marks on unexposed backboards, natural shrinkage lines along solid timber panels, and aged patination around original brass fittings.

An antique oak chest serves as a grounding focal point in contemporary spaces, providing functional storage in hallways, bedrooms, or living rooms while contrasting with minimalist architectural lines and modern artwork.

Dust regularly with a soft lint-free cloth and apply high-quality beeswax twice yearly along the grain. Keep the item away from direct heat sources and extreme humidity fluctuations to prevent timber cracking or warping.
