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 Georgian chest of drawers dates from around 1800 and is constructed from mahogany with a warm brown timber colour, complemented by solid oak drawer linings and brass hardware. The piece presents a rectangular top with an applied ogee moulded edge above two short drawers and three long drawers of graduated depth. The well-figured flame mahogany drawer fronts have cockbeaded edges, brass swan-neck handles, and small brass keyhole escutcheons. A moulded trim runs around the base, and the cabinet is raised on large shaped bracket feet to the front and sides, with matching mahogany veneered sides. The chest measures 96.5 cm high, 94 cm wide, and 47 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this traditional chest of drawers works effectively in a bedroom, guest room, or hallway to provide functional storage for clothing or linens while serving as a classic surface for lamps, mirrors, or decorative objects. The compact proportions allow it to fit neatly against walls in various living spaces, bringing authentic early nineteenth-century British cabinetry to both period and modern interiors.

FAQs

Chests of drawers from the late Georgian period typically feature balanced proportions, mahogany timber construction, bracket feet, and a functional arrangement of two short top drawers over three long lower drawers.

These chests were constructed primarily from solid mahogany and flame mahogany veneers, often utilising pine or oak as secondary woods for drawer linings, complemented by cast brass handles.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, hand-planed timber backboards, original brass keyhole escutcheons, and natural patination consistent with age.

A classic mahogany chest functions as a grounding focal point in contemporary spaces, pairing well with contemporary artwork, neutral wool rugs, and minimalistic ceramic table lamps.

Maintain mahogany by dusting with a dry microfiber cloth and applying beeswax polish annually along the grain. Keep the piece away from direct radiators and prolonged direct sunlight to prevent timber movement.
