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.

This 1880 Victorian Aesthetic Movement side cabinet stands 130 cm high, 126 cm wide, and 42 cm deep. Constructed from ebonised wood with glass, gilt, and brass, the piece exhibits an ebonised black finish accented with parcel-gilt and hand-painted botanical motifs. The structure incorporates turned tapering legs, open display shelves with mirrored backings on either side, a shaped bevelled mirror back, and two central drawers positioned above a panel door featuring a central bird and flower arrangement. Brass drop handles furnish the drawers. In a modern home, this side cabinet functions as a display and storage unit in a living room, dining room, or hallway. The open shelving accommodates decorative items, glassware, or books, while the enclosed cupboard and drawers offer concealed storage for smaller household belongings. The mirrored elements reflect light and surrounding space, contributing to room brightness.

FAQs

Originating in the late 19th century, Aesthetic Movement furniture emphasises craftsmanship, artistic expression, and surface decoration, often featuring ebonised wood, Anglo-Japanese motifs, gilded detailing, and hand-painted panels.

These cabinets were constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut treated black to imitate ebony, complemented by gilt highlights, mirror plate backings, and painted or marquetry panels.

Authentic pieces feature period joinery such as hand-cut dovetails, original silvered or mercury mirrors, fine hand-applied gilding, and stylised botanical or Japanese-inspired decoration directly applied to the timber.

An ebonised cabinet serves as a dark focal point; display curated ceramics or glassware on its open mirrored shelves and place it against contrasting light or deeply saturated walls.

Dust gently using a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding water or liquid polishes on painted or gilded sections, and keep the cabinet away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent timber movement.
