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.

Bobbin turning, popular in the 17th century during the Jacobean and Carolean periods, features a series of rounded, spool-like shapes produced on a wood lathe to form decorative legs and stretchers.

Tables from this period were predominantly constructed from solid European oak, joined using wooden pegs and hand-cut mortise and tenon joints, complemented by brass or iron hardware.

Authentic period pieces display signs of hand-planing, irregular wooden peg placement, historic wear along the lower stretchers, and wooden drawer runners with uneven friction marks.

Place the table alongside a tailored contemporary sofa or armchairs, allowing the textured lathe-turned legs to add historical contrast within a neutral or modern room scheme.

Apply a high-quality beeswax polish periodically to protect the timber surface, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent drying or splitting.
