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.

Camphor wood chests are traditional storage trunks made from the Cinnamomum camphora tree, historically crafted across East Asia for maritime trade and domestic linen storage.

These trunks are constructed primarily from solid camphor timber, valued for its aromatic essential oils, and are frequently fitted with brass or iron latch mechanisms and brass side handles.

Authentic pieces are identified by the distinct, natural aroma of camphor wood when opened, hand-carved relief panel details, hand-fitted joinery such as dovetails, and period-appropriate brass hardware.

A camphor trunk functions effectively at the foot of a bed, as a low coffee table in a living area, or positioned along a hallway wall to store seasonal textiles.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying natural beeswax sparingly along the wood grain; keep the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage or splitting.
