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

Originating in the early 18th century, Rococo furniture is characterised by asymmetrical motifs, sinuous curves, intricate inlaid marquetry or parquetry, and decorative brass mounts.

Craftsmen frequently utilised native fruitwoods such as plumwood, walnut, or kingwood for decorative veneers and parquetry, set over pine or oak frames with cast brass hardware.

Authentic pieces generally display hand-cut dovetail joints, irregular saw marks on rear panels, uneven wear on drawer runners, and original hand-cast metal hardware with natural oxidisation.

Placing a curved commode in an entryway, dining space, or bedroom creates a central focal point when contrasted against neutral walls and contemporary artwork.

Preserve the wood finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth, applying a high-grade beeswax polish sparingly, and maintaining stable humidity levels away from direct heat sources.
