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

A coffer is a traditional sturdy chest historically used for storing valuables, documents, and textiles, dating back to medieval times when they served as portable furniture.

These pieces are predominantly constructed from solid oak using frame-and-panel construction, pegged joints, and hand-cut mouldings to accommodate wood movement over centuries.

Authentic pieces display period tool marks, hand-split timber grain, traditional joinery such as trammel points or pegged mortise and tenon, and natural patination rather than modern hardware.

Position the piece at the foot of a bed or as a focal point in a hallway, contrasting the dark timber with neutral textiles or minimalist contemporary surroundings.

Maintain the wood by keeping it away from direct heat sources and sunlight, and periodically apply natural beeswax to nourish the timber without sealing the pores.
