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

Originally designed for communal dining in medieval monastic refectories, refectory tables are long, sturdy tables characterised by heavy timber tops and trestle or pedestal supports. The style was revived during the nineteenth century under Renaissance Revival influences for formal domestic dining rooms and libraries.

Traditional refectory tables were crafted from dense hardwoods such as walnut or oak. Construction relies on solid plank tops, hand-carved pedestal or trestle legs, mortise and tenon joinery, and a low central stretcher connecting the supports for structural stability.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples display signs of period craftsmanship, including hand-carved detail work, natural timber shrinkage across the plank top, and uneven wear on the footrests or stretchers. The walnut often exhibits a deep patina with subtle variations in wood grain and surface finish.

A carved refectory table functions well as a focal point in a dining room or spacious home office. Contrast the ornate, heavy wood carvings by pairing the table with streamlined contemporary chairs or simple upholstered seating.

Dust the wood regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the finish. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber warping or cracking, and use coasters to protect against moisture.
