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.

Extending dining tables produced by Gillows of Lancaster and London are noted for precision craftsmanship and wooden slide mechanisms, allowing banquet tables to expand or contract using extra insertion leaves.

These tables were constructed using solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over oak or pine sub-frames, accented with brass castors and brass leaf clips.

Authentic Regency pieces often feature stamped maker marks on drawer tops or frame rails, hand-cut dovetails, reeded leg turnings, and original brass wheel castors.

Position the table beneath a contemporary pendant light and pair it with minimalist modern chairs to create a clear visual contrast between dark timber and clean lines.

Keep the timber surface away from direct sunlight and heat sources, wipe up spills immediately, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the wood grain.
