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

A marquetry side cabinet functions as an accent piece in a hallway, drawing room, or dining space. Positioned against a neutral or dark backdrop, the warm wood tones and detailed brass mounts contrast effectively with minimalist contemporary furnishings.

Maintain stable humidity to prevent the thin timber veneers from lifting or cracking. Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleaners on the gilt mounts, and apply a light beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the wood surface.

Authentic nineteenth-century revival pieces show hand-cut veneer joinery, oak or pine drawer linings, and cast metal mounts held with slotted screws. Natural signs of age include slight shrinkage lines in the veneer and original patina on the gilded bronze or brass fittings.

Cabinets of this type feature veneer woods such as kingwood, rosewood, and tulipwood laid over a solid timber carcass. The decorative marquetry panels use contrasting fruitwoods to form detailed pictorial designs, complemented by gilt-bronze or cast brass mounts and polished varnish finishes.

The Louis XV style is characterised by asymmetrical Rococo curves, serpentine profiles, and sweeping cabriole legs. Nineteenth-century revival pieces retained these sweeping silhouettes, incorporating intricate marquetry inlays depicting floral or figurative scenes alongside cast brass or bronze ormolu mounts.
