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 marquetry dressing table incorporates decorative wood veneers laid into a base timber structure to form floral, geometric, or figurative patterns across drawer fronts and mirror frames. Popularised in the 17th century and produced through subsequent design revivals, these pieces integrate storage drawers with a flat surface and an attached dressing mirror.

Construction usually features solid oak or walnut framing paired with contrasting hardwood or softwood inlays such as boxwood, fruitwood, or rosewood. Cabinetmaking techniques include hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, turned legs connected by stretchers, and cast brass hardware.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut inlay work with subtle variations rather than laser-trimmed precision, alongside visible dovetail jointing inside drawers. Age-related timber oxidisation, natural wear on stretchers, and subtle silvering or foxing on original glass mirrors also assist identification.

Position the dressing table against a neutral wall to highlight the grain and detailed marquetry work. Combine the piece with modern ceramic accessories, a low-profile upholstered stool, or a minimalist table lamp to blend historical craftsmanship with contemporary design elements.

Position the item away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement and veneer lift. Clean surfaces regularly using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish periodically to protect the wood finish and preserve the inlay details.
