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.

Produced during the reign of King George IV (18201830), these tables typically feature heavy pedestal bases, quatrefid platforms, bold mouldings, and fold-over swivel tops designed for parlour card games.

Cabinetmakers during this period favoured rich native and imported hardwoods, particularly burr oak, mahogany, and rosewood, often paired with green baize lining on the interior playing surface.

Scottish pieces from makers like William Trotter often exhibit distinctive gadrooned borders, faceted central pedestals, scrolling feet, and high-quality veneering over solid timber frames.

When closed, the table functions as a console or side table against a wall or in an entryway, serving as a display surface for lamps, ceramics, or modern artwork.

Maintain burr oak veneer by applying a high-quality beeswax polish twice yearly, keeping the surface away from direct heat sources, and dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth.
