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

The Arts and Crafts movement emerged in the late 19th century as a reaction against machine-made mass production, championing traditional craftsmanship, simple forms, and the integrity of natural materials.

Pieces from this era typically feature solid native hardwoods such as oak, constructed using traditional joinery techniques like mortise and tenon, often complemented by hand-beaten metal hardware and leather inserts.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-correct construction markers such as hand-cut dovetails on drawer boxes, natural timber shrinkage, genuine patination on hardware, and absence of modern power-tool indicators.

Pairing a traditional wooden desk with modern minimal seating creates a balanced focal point in a study or living space, contrasting historical texture with clean, modern lines.

Maintain timber and leather surfaces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and occasionally applying appropriate natural wax.
