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

Chinoiserie refers to European artistic interpretations of East Asian decorative traditions, popular from the late seventeenth century onwards. It is characterised by elaborate lacquerwork, gilt paintwork, and whimsical depictions of oriental landscapes, pagodas, and flora on traditional Western furniture forms.

Lacquered lowboys were typically built from timber substrates such as pine or oak, then prepared with layers of gesso. Multiple coats of coloured lacquer or paint were applied, followed by raised or flat gilding for detail and brass hardware fixtures.

Authentic pieces exhibit fine micro-craquelure across the painted surface due to natural shrinkage over time. Examine the drawer construction for hand-cut dovetail joints and inspect the underside for period-appropriate timber wear and original brass mount fittings.

A vibrant red lacquered lowboy functions as a focal accent piece when set against neutral or dark saturated walls. It works effectively as an occasional table beside upholstered seating or positioned in an entryway to provide decorative contrast.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth without applying water or chemical sprays. Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity level, and keep the piece out of direct sunlight to prevent lacquer shrinkage and fading.
