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

Butlers tray tables emerged in the 18th and 19th centuries as portable serving furniture used in stately homes. Designed with removable or folding trays mounted on collapsible bases, they allowed domestic staff to transport food, tea, and drinks efficiently between service areas and living quarters.

These tables were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut. Construction features include mortise and tenon joinery, hand-turned legs or X-frame folding mechanisms, gallery edges to prevent items from sliding, and brass hardware fittings.

Authentic period pieces display evidence of hand craftsmanship, such as subtle variations in turned spindles, original brass hinges with period wear, and historic timber shrinkage around joints. Natural patination and oxidation in unexposed areas under the top or frame also indicate authentic age.

In modern spaces, a butlers tray table functions effectively as an occasional drinks bar, an end-of-sofa side table, or a bedside stand. Its structural X-frame profile provides visual contrast alongside modern upholstered furniture.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-grade natural beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the timber finish. Position the table away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent wood movement or splitting.
