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.
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.
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.

Gothic Revival library tables, popular during the 19th century, feature architectural elements inspired by medieval European design, such as lancet arches, clustered columns, and moulded friezes, constructed from hardwoods including rosewood, oak, and mahogany.

Victorian library tables were typically crafted from solid rosewood, mahogany, or oak, often incorporating leather inset writing surfaces decorated with blind or gold tooling and constructed using mortise-and-tenon joinery.

Authentic Victorian rosewood tables feature dense grain patterns with dark brown and black streaking, hand-carved architectural joinery, period-correct brass castors, and sometimes maker stamps or brass plaques affixed to the underside or drawer interior.

A Gothic Revival library table functions effectively as a central writing desk in a home office or as a focal console in an expansive hallway, balanced alongside modern architectural lighting and neutral soft furnishings.

Antique rosewood furniture should be dusted regularly with a soft dry cloth and treated periodically with high-quality beeswax polish, keeping the timber away from direct sunlight and heat radiators to prevent cracking or fading.
