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.

A gateleg table is a type of drop-leaf table introduced in the 17th century, featuring legs that pivot outwards like gates to support extended circular or oval leaves.

Traditional pieces were crafted primarily from solid English oak using mortise and tenon joinery, secured with hand-shaped wooden pegs rather than metal fasteners.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-planed surfaces, irregular wear on lower stretchers, hand-wrought iron hinges, and dark natural patination within crevices.

Position the table as a central dining piece paired with contemporary minimalist seating, or collapse the leaves to serve as a narrow side table against a neutral wall.

Apply high-grade beeswax twice yearly, wipe liquid spills immediately, and keep the timber away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage or splitting.
