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

During the Qing dynasty, centre tables were crafted from dense tropical hardwoods, featuring reticulated openwork carvings, decorative stone insets, and shell embellishments for placement within formal domestic spaces.

These tables typically utilise dense hardwoods such as hongmu or rosewood, coupled with Dali marble panel insets and mother-of-pearl inlays, assembled using complex mortise and tenon joinery.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut mortise and tenon joints, natural wear and oxidisation on untreated timber undersides, hand-carved reticulated aprons, and hand-fitted marble inserts.

An antique Chinese table functions as a focal architectural element when placed in an entrance hall, positioned behind a sofa, or paired with contemporary artwork.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and fluctuating humidity to prevent timber movement, dust regularly with a soft cloth, apply microcrystalline wax, and clean the marble using pH-neutral solutions.
