Let customers speak for us
I absolutely love my one off purchase and Danielle was so helpful every step of the way!
I had a wonderful experience with Danielle and Antiquely. Such a clever site and wonderful lady to work with. Danielle helped me sell pre owned things from my previous home that no longer worked in my current home. The thought of gumtree scared me. I run a design firm so our stars aligned. All the items I wanted to sell were upmarket and needed to go to new homes, in which Danielle helped me achieve this. She was professional, driven and has fantastic followers. She created this wonderful tastemaker sale and it was a success. I feel relieved that my pre owned items are loved and re homed. I would not hesitate to work with Danielle again, she is awesome! xx Lauren
The lamp and shade were lovely. Exactly as described. Seller was so easy to deal with. Thank You.
Antiquely is the place to visit if you’re looking for that something extra special. I have found the most beautiful pieces that I will treasure. My most recent purchase is my best purchase to date, a stunning mirror that I’ve spent years searching for.. Thank you Danielle.
We recently conducted a taste maker sale with Danielle and we thrilled with the outcome. The Antiquely platform connected us to new customers and resulted in fantastic sales. Danielles communication was excellent and her professionalism is second to none. We loved selling with the platform and have loved sourcing with Antiquely also.
I am thrilled with all my purchases, from devine fabrics to chandeliers. Delivery is swift and beautifully wrapped. Wonderful quality and great value. Thank you!!!
I purchased fabric that was exactly as it was described and the pick up
process was seamless … Thankyou
I love Antiquely, it's very addictive. I find myself checking out new items daily. I purchased 3 times last week. If you are searching for beautiful unique items for your home look no further.
Becoming a seller on Antiquely has been the best decision I've made. The whole process has been easy from the start, and the support I get as a seller is second to none, leaving me more time to source and make unique and beautiful things to sell to our wonderful customers.
Excellent service from Jodie . Exactly as described and perfect addition to our home . Love them ❤️
It was a pleasure to collaborate with Antiquely on our “shop my home” sale
Danielle made the process easy for us to sell our treasured pieces to her clients ,and it was a joy to see how many pieces sold.
We hope to collaborate with Antiquely again
We collaborated with Antiquely for our Tastemaker Sale, featuring a curated collection of antique and vintage items, bespoke cushions, lamps, and objects that reflect our enduring style. It was a pleasure for us to work with Danielle behind the scenes on planning, executing and marketing this special event. We were thrilled with the public's response, selling most of the items in the sale and seeing those items find homes with people who value the timelessness, craftsmanship and quality of the items we included.
Antiquely has a great range of lovely, unique items. I bought a great rattan framed mirror. Delivery (to Sydney) was speedy and careful. Great communication with the owner. Will definitely shop here again (though don’t tell my hubby!😈)
I’m so glad I stumbled across Antiquely. Such a treasure trove of beautiful antiques and excellent customer service. Thank you!
