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.

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.

Chinoiserie refers to European decorative art that imitates Chinese and East Asian artistic traditions. It gained widespread popularity during the 18th century, incorporating motifs such as landscapes, birds, pagodas, and figures executed in gilt or paint.

These cupboards were typically constructed from carcase timbers like pine or oak, which were painted, lacquered, or japanned to create a smooth surface suitable for detailed gilding and polychrome hand-painted decoration.

Authentic 18th-century pieces usually exhibit hand-carved joinery, natural craquelure in the painted finish, aged gilding, and period-correct iron or brass hardware, along with consistent wear around handles and bases.

Position the piece in an underutilised corner of a dining room or drawing room to maximise floor space while providing a decorative focal point, pairing it with neutral upholstery to balance the detailed paintwork.

Keep the item away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber movement and paint flaking, and dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth without applying water or chemical cleansers.
