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 polished wood surfaces should be dusted with a dry, lint-free cloth and treated sparingly with high-grade beeswax polish. Gilt-bronze ormolu mounts should never be cleaned with harsh chemical brass polish, which strips gilding; gentle dusting or cleaning with a soft brush is recommended.

When folded, the table functions as a compact console against a wall in an entryway or alcove, providing a strong visual contrast against modern painted backgrounds. It can also be opened to serve as a distinctive focal point in a formal living area.

Authentic period examples feature hand-chased mounts secured with period-correct screws, genuine veneer thickness rather than modern paper-thin cuts, and evidence of hand-planed or saw-marked timber construction beneath the surface.

Craftsmen typically utilized rich hardwood veneers such as rosewood, mahogany, kingwood, and tulipwood over solid oak or pine carcasses. Marquetry and parquetry patterns were frequently employed, complemented by cast and chased gilt-bronze or brass mounts.

Originating in 18th-century France and widely revived in the 19th century, this style is defined by sinuous serpentine outlines, delicate cabriole legs, and elaborate gilt-bronze ormolu mounts. These pieces were designed as occasional furniture for playing cards or dice in aristocratic drawing rooms.
