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.

French Provincial dining tables from the nineteenth century are typically crafted from native regional woods such as cherry, pear, or apple. They feature practical designs, subtle elegance, sweeping cabriole legs, and understated decorative elements like timber marquetry or hand-carved motifs.

These tables were constructed using dense local fruitwoods and assembled using traditional mortise and tenon joinery. Tops often feature decorative contrast timber inlays, supported by hand-carved friezes and pull-out extension runners.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-planed surfaces, irregular timber graining, original wooden extension slides, and natural patination around the lower legs and frieze. Inlay work typically shows slight variations characteristic of hand crafting.

Pair the warm tones of antique fruitwood with contemporary upholstered dining chairs or minimalist modern seating to create a balanced scheme. The table serves as a rich tactile anchor in neutral, light-filled dining rooms.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year along the grain. Keep the table away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage and ensure extension leaves slide smoothly.
