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 Georgian serpentine chest of drawers features a subtle wave-like convex and concave front panel configuration, prominent in late eighteenth-century English cabinetmaking influenced by Thomas Chippendale and George Hepplewhite.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised solid mahogany or pine carcasses veneered with figured mahogany, accented with boxwood stringing, oak drawer linings, and cast brass handles.

Authentic eighteenth-century chests typically exhibit hand-dovetailed drawer joints, oak or pine secondary woods, original cast brass hardware with thread-cut posts, and historic wear along the drawer runners.

A Georgian chest can serve as an anchor in an entryway, living area, or bedroom, paired with contemporary artwork or architectural table lamps to contrast modern lines with warm wood tones.

Position the piece away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent timber shrinkage and veneer lifting, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually following the grain of the wood.
