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.

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.

George II furniture, dating from 1727 to 1760, is characterized by the widespread adoption of mahogany, gracefully curved cabriole legs, pad or claw-and-ball feet, and balanced classical proportions.

High-grade dense mahogany imported from the West Indies was the preferred timber, prized for its durability, deep grain, and rich patination when polished.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved turned central pedestals, hand-cut dovetail joints on tilt-top mechanisms, natural shrinkage across the grain of the circular top, and original iron or brass catch fittings underneath.

A period tripod table functions as an elegant accent alongside contemporary seating, serving as a drinks surface or displaying a minimalist table lamp to contrast classic timber with modern textiles.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish once or twice a year, avoiding modern aerosol sprays and direct heat sources.
