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

Originating in 18th-century Britain, Georgian chests of drawers feature balanced proportions, rich native or imported woods such as mahogany, and classic brass hardware including drop handles and escutcheons.

Craftsmen utilised hand-cut dovetail joints for drawer assembly, solid or veneered mahogany for visible surfaces, and secondary timbers like pine or oak for interior drawer construction.

Authentic pieces feature hand-sawn timber linings, hand-cut dovetail joinery, period brass fittings, and signs of natural wood shrinkage across drawer bottoms over time.

Position the piece as a focal storage unit in a hallway or bedroom, styling the top surface with simple ceramics or contemporary artwork to balance historic timber tones.

Dust gently with a dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically, while keeping the timber away from direct sunlight, humid environments, and radiators.
