Archival Detail
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.

Established in Edinburgh during the early nineteenth century, Whytock & Reid was a prominent Scottish cabinetmaker and interior decorator known for producing high-quality furniture, often collaborating with distinguished architects such as Sir Robert Lorimer.

Cabinetmakers utilised durable hardwoods such as oak or mahogany for framing, often incorporating decorative face veneers like burr walnut or ash, constructed using hand-cut dovetail joints and solid field panels.

Authentic pieces frequently bear maker stamps or labels, feature hand-crafted dovetailing inside drawers, exhibit original brass hardware, and show natural timber oxidisation on untreated rear panels.

Position the cabinet as a standalone statement piece in a dining room, hallway, or study, complementing its rich timber tones with neutral wall colours and contemporary decorative accessories.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry cloth, apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish annually following the wood grain, and maintain a stable humidity level away from direct heat sources.
