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

Traditional open bookcases from the 19th and early 20th centuries typically feature functional architectural lines, unglazed shelving for immediate access, and durable timber construction designed to support heavy volumes.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from solid quarter-sawn or plain oak, often joined using traditional mortise and tenon joints, dovetail construction, and finished with hand-applied wax or shellac.

Authentic period pieces display natural timber ageing, hand-cut joinery marks, iron or brass fixings consistent with the era, and a characteristic patina developed through decades of use.

Pair the natural timber warmth with neutral wall colours, mix vertical book arrangements with decorative ceramic objects, and ensure adequate negative space on the shelves to balance the visual weight.

Maintain antique oak by keeping it out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources to prevent timber splitting, and occasionally nourish the wood with a traditional beeswax polish.
