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

Scrumbling, or scumbling, is a decorative 19th-century paint technique where a translucent glaze is applied and manipulated over a lighter base coat to imitate the rich figure and grain of expensive hardwoods on softwoods like pine.

Victorian storage boxes were typically constructed from British or imported softwoods, predominantly pine or deal, using iron nails, cut brass escutcheons, and hand-applied oil or water-based glazes.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural paint wear around corners and handles, hand-cut dovetail or rebate joinery, period iron hardware, and genuine craquelure or oxidisation within the glaze layers.

These decorative chests function well as low coffee tables, foot-of-bed linen storage, or standalone accent pieces in hallways to add warmth and historical texture to contemporary spaces.

Dust regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth and apply a thin layer of clear natural beeswax annually; avoid water, chemical solvents, or abrasive cleaners that can dissolve historic paint glazes.
