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

Originating in the late Victorian era as tea trolleys for serving hot beverages, these mobile tables evolved during the mid-20th century into cocktail carts designed for entertaining and housing glassware and spirits.

Mid-century models frequently feature steam-bent hardwoods such as beech or oak, bound with natural cane or wicker wrapping at the joints, and fitted with multi-tiered trays and metal swivel castors.

Authentic pieces often display manufacturer plaques or stamps from makers like Lusty of Leicester, featuring steam-bent wooden frames, organic cane binding around structural points, and original brass or iron castor wheels.

A vintage drinks trolley can serve as a standalone beverage station equipped with decanters and glassware, or be repurposed as an occasional side table or indoor plant display.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft cloth, apply natural beeswax to the timber frame to prevent drying, and keep cane bindings away from direct heat sources to prevent brittleness.
