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

A Regency tea table typically features a hinged fold-over top designed to rest flat against a wall as a console when closed, expanding into a larger surface for tea service when open, frequently supported by a central pedestal with splayed quadruped legs.

High-grade flame mahogany, rosewood or satinwood crossbanding, and pine or oak secondary timbers were standard materials, complemented by brass castors and metal hardware.

Authentic pieces feature period joinery such as hand-cut dovetails on internal frames, original brass castors secured with period-appropriate screws, hand-carved reeding or fluting, and natural surface wear consistent with age.

Position the table closed against a hallway wall as an entry console, topped with a contemporary table lamp or ceramics, or place it behind a sofa to serve as a low display area.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply a beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, and keep the table away from direct sunlight and heat radiators to avoid timber shrinkage.
