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.

A refectory table is a long, narrow dining table originally designed for communal dining in monastic halls, becoming popular in domestic settings during the 16th and 17th centuries.

Period refectory tables were typically constructed from solid English oak using pegged mortise-and-tenon joinery, sturdy turned baluster legs, and low perimeter stretchers designed to keep feet off cold floors.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-planed top planks, hand-cut wooden securing pegs, natural timber movement over time, and irregular surface wear consistent with age and usage.

A period refectory table can be styled alongside contemporary dining chairs, modern pendant lighting, and neutral natural linen textiles to create a balanced, textured dining space.

Position the table away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture, dust regularly with a soft cloth, and apply a clear beeswax polish periodically to protect the timber and retain the surface finish.
