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 early twentieth century, this furniture form combines the compact functional design of revolving bookstands with neoclassical Sheraton Revival features, including geometric satinwood line inlay and mahogany construction.

They were constructed primarily from solid mahogany and mahogany veneers, accented with satinwood marquetry. The structure features vertical wooden slats to retain books and an internal iron swivel mechanism fitted to a quadform base with brass castors.

Authentic period examples display precise satinwood inlay, original iron revolving hardware underneath the structure, period dovetailed joinery, natural timber patination, and period-appropriate brass castors.

Placing a matching pair at either end of a sofa or beside reading armchairs creates balanced symmetry while serving as functional side tables with integrated storage.

Dust regularly with a dry cloth and apply clear beeswax polish along the wood grain as required. Maintain the internal metal rotating mechanism with a small amount of lubricant, and position the pieces away from direct heat sources.
