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

Regency card tables were produced in early 19th-century Britain, characterised by neoclassical proportions, fine veneers such as rosewood or mahogany, and decorative brass inlays or mounts.

High-quality pieces featured dark exotic timber veneers, predominantly rosewood or mahogany, complemented by intricately cut brass inlay work, fold-over swivel tops, and cast brass leg caps with castors.

Authentic Regency tables display precise cabinetmaking, original brass hardware with natural oxidisation, hand-cut dovetail joints on internal mechanisms, and age-appropriate surface patina.

Positioned against a wall as side tables or flanking a doorway as console tables, these pieces offer architectural symmetry and rich wood tones that complement contemporary schemes.

Keep the furniture away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer movement, apply high-grade beeswax sparingly along the wood grain, and avoid chemical polishes that may harm brass inlay.
