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

Popular during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, a folding tea table is a dual-purpose piece of furniture crafted with a hinged top. When closed, it functions as a compact wall or console table; when opened, the top rotates or extends on a support leg to create a larger surface for serving tea or playing cards.

Tables from this period were primarily constructed from solid mahogany and mahogany veneers, prized for their rich grain patterns. Accents often included boxwood or ebony stringing inlay, brass hinges, and turned oak or pine secondary timbers for internal frameworks.

Authentic pieces feature period-appropriate construction markers such as hand-cut dovetail joints, brass rule hinges set into the timber edges, natural uneven shrinkage along the underside, and authentic patina on the turned legs and apron.

Position the table closed against a hallway or living room wall to function as a narrow console table beneath a mirror or framed artwork. Alternatively, place it open behind a freestanding sofa to serve as a low display surface for table lamps and ceramics.

Preserve the timber finish by dusting regularly with a soft, dry cotton cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax paste once or twice a year. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber warping and veneer cracking.
