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

Designed during the interwar period, these dual-purpose functional pieces combined vertical storage for periodicals with an extended or cantilevered surface intended to extend over the arm of an armchair for reading.

Solid oak was the predominant timber utilised during the 1920s, paired with simple panel construction and metal hinges or brass swivels to support the cantilevered folding mechanism.

Authentic pieces feature geometric interwar styling, clean rectilinear lines, period joinery, original brass hardware, and patinated oak grain rather than elaborate carving.

Position the item adjacent to an armchair or sofa to serve as an occasional side table, using the integrated trough to display art monographs or current periodicals.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the wood grain twice annually to maintain the timber finish and prevent drying.
