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.

Crafted predominantly during the Qing period for Western trade, this style features dense Asian rosewoods carved with intricate mythical motifs, foliage, and dragons, combining traditional Chinese wood carving techniques with functional European forms.

These tables were hand-carved from solid rosewood or zitan, joined using traditional mortise-and-tenon carpentry without metal nails, and finished with natural oil or dark wax polishes to highlight the deep grain.

Authentic period examples display hand-tool marks on unpolished undersides, irregular hand-carved detail symmetry, original timber shrinkage around joins, and natural surface wear consistent with age.

Position the piece as an accent next to clean-lined upholstered seating or in a reading nook to allow its sculptural silhouette and detailed wood carving to contrast against contemporary neutral backdrops.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking. Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually to protect the original finish.
