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 butler tray on stand is a two-piece furniture item featuring a removable wooden tray with integral handles set upon a collapsible X-frame stand. Originating in 18th and 19th-century British homes, it was designed to transport and serve refreshments efficiently.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, featuring brass hardware and woven fabric or leather webbing across the folding stand legs.

Authentic period examples typically feature hand-dovetailed joints along the tray gallery, hand-carved handle cutouts, original brass fixings with subtle oxidisation, and wear consistent with age along the structural webbing.

This functional accent piece serves as an occasional drinks table beside a sofa, a compact bedside surface, or a portable serving station within a dining area.

Preserve the wood by dusting regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and applying a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year, avoiding modern aerosol sprays and direct heat sources.
