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.

A serpentine front commode features a subtle undulating, wave-like convex and concave front shape that was prominent in high-end late eighteenth-century cabinetmaking.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised solid timber structures faced with flame mahogany or walnut veneers, often enhanced with exotic wood crossbanding, pine drawer linings, and hand-cast brass hardware.

Authentic Georgian pieces exhibit hand-dovetailed drawer joints, oxidation on unpainted secondary timbers, original cast brass fittings, and natural patination across original lacquer or wax finishes.

Position the piece as a focal architectural anchor, paired with contemporary abstract art above and simple ceramic or glassware props to balance classic proportions with modern design.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and modern central heating sources to prevent shrinkage, applying a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice yearly with a soft cloth.
