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.

Art Deco tallboys from the 1930s are characterised by geometric silhouettes, clean vertical lines, and a focus on figured timber veneers, particularly burr walnut, arranged in symmetrical book-matched patterns.

These pieces typically feature solid hardwood frames overlaid with cut walnut or burr walnut veneers, alongside brass or moulded glass hardware and solid timber drawer construction.

Authentic items display period-correct joinery such as hand-cut dovetails, original hardware mounting holes, age-appropriate patination to non-visible surfaces, and true book-matched veneer work.

Position the cabinet against neutral walls to highlight the rich timber figure, paired with geometric lighting and tailored upholstery for a refined transitional aesthetic.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply a thin coat of clear beeswax once or twice a year, and keep the piece away from direct sunlight and radiators to protect the veneer.
