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.

Satinwood trays became prominent during the late 18th and 19th centuries, heavily influenced by Neoclassical and Sheraton designs. Cabinetmakers used fine satinwood veneers decorated with detailed marquetry inlays to create elegant serving pieces for tea service and formal entertainment.

These trays typically feature a base of dense timber covered with satinwood veneer, embellished with contrasting exotic wood inlays such as boxwood, ebony, and rosewood. Cast brass side handles were routinely fitted to assist with carrying.

Authentic period pieces display natural wood grain variations, hand-cut inlay joinery, and natural age oxidation on both the timber and brass components. The underside often shows hand-planed secondary wood construction rather than modern plywood.

Position the tray on a central coffee table, sideboard top, or ottoman to anchor smaller decorative items such as decanters, glassware, or floral arrangements. The warm tone of satinwood provides an organic contrast to contemporary surfaces.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural bees-wax polish sparingly to preserve the timber finish. Avoid exposure to direct heat sources, standing liquids, and direct sunlight to prevent veneer lifting or fading.
