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.

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 sectional bookcase, also known as a barrister bookcase, consists of separate stackable units that fit together to create a flexible storage cabinet. Originally designed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these pieces allowed legal professionals to easily expand and transport their libraries.

Gunn sectional bookcases were predominantly constructed from solid oak or mahogany, featuring glazed doors equipped with receding door-slide mechanisms. The individual modules slot together using wooden tongue-and-groove joints, anchored by a moulded top cap and a stable plinth base.

Authentic period pieces often feature maker marks or paper labels inside the modular sections, along with original brass pull knobs and smooth roller mechanisms for the doors. Traditional interlocking timber construction without modern metal brackets or artificial fasteners is another key indicator.

Place a sectional bookcase in a study, hallway, or living room to showcase leather-bound books alongside curated ceramics and glassware. The glass doors provide protection against dust while creating an elegant display cabinet in contemporary settings.

Dust the oak frame regularly using a soft microfibre cloth and apply quality beeswax polish once or twice a year following the grain. Clean the glass panes with a soft cloth slightly dampened with glass cleaner, ensuring no moisture touches the surrounding timber frame or door tracks.
