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.

FAQs

Originating during the Qing Dynasty in China, these stands were constructed to display porcelain, bonsai, or urns, featuring decorative hand-carving and inset marble tops.

Artisans typically utilised dense tropical hardwoods such as hongmu, zitan, or rosewood, paired with inset variegated marble or soapstone tops.

Authentic examples exhibit traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery without modern metal screws, dense wood weight, hand-carved relief details, and natural patination on the underside.

These versatile occasional tables function as distinct accent pieces in contemporary living spaces, hallway nooks, or beside armchairs to add visual texture and historical depth.

Maintain the piece by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth, keeping it away from direct heat sources to prevent wood movement, and using pH-neutral cleaner on the marble insert.
