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.

Quartetto tables are a set of four graduated occasional tables designed to fit closely inside one another. Popularised during the Qing Dynasty for export and domestic use, Chinese examples incorporate traditional wood joinery and carved aprons.

Late nineteenth-century Chinese furniture was predominantly crafted from dense Asian hardwoods such as Hongmu, Zitan, or Rosewood. These pieces were constructed using mortise and tenon joinery without the use of metal nails or screws.

Authentic pieces feature traditional joinery, floating panel tops designed to accommodate wood expansion, hand-carved decorative aprons, and natural wear patterns along the feet and sliding runners.

These versatile tables can be placed together beside a sofa as a compact tiered unit or separated throughout a room to serve as individual drink stands and plant displays.

Maintain hardwood surfaces by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep items away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent timber shrinkage.
