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.

Originating in 18th-century America, the Philadelphia style chest on stand, or highboy, features a two-part construction incorporating a tall upper chest resting upon a cabriole-legged stand, often finished with a swan-neck pediment.

These pieces were primarily crafted from dense woods such as mahogany, walnut, or cherry, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer construction, fine timber line inlay, and solid brass handles.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn secondary timbers, slightly irregular hand-cut dovetail joints, cast brass backplates with threaded posts, and period-appropriate wear along internal drawer runners.

A tall mahogany chest functions as an architectural focal point in a bedroom or hallway, providing vertical proportion and contrasting warm timber tones against contemporary painted walls.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry microfiber cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax paste annually, ensuring the cabinet remains away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity levels.
