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

Dolphin imagery in decorative arts dates back to ancient Greco-Roman motifs representing sea deities. The style experienced major revivals during the French Empire and English Regency periods, where sculpted marine life was rendered in cast bronze or carved wood to support table surfaces.

These tables typically feature solid marble or porphyry tops supported by cast brass, bronze, or carved timber legs finished in gilt or dark patina. The supporting bases are often weighted timber plinths to ensure stability.

High-grade examples exhibit crisp hand-chiseled detail in the scales and facial features, along with substantial physical weight. Authentic gilt finishes show subtle tonal variation and light oxidisation in recessed areas rather than uniform spray paint.

A marble and gilt table serves as a strong focal point when placed alongside clean-lined modern sofas upholstered in neutral wool or velvet. Keeping surrounding decor minimal allows the detailed sculptural metalwork to stand out.

Marble tops require non-acidic, pH-neutral cleaners to avoid etching the stone surface, along with periodic application of stone sealer. Gilt metal should be dusted gently with a dry microfiber cloth, avoiding liquid polishes that strip protective gilding.
