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 18th-century France during the reign of Louis XV, fold-over card tables were designed as occasional furniture for social gaming, featuring a hinged top that opens to double its surface area.

These tables are traditionally constructed with hardwood veneers such as walnut or kingwood, decorated with floral marquetry inlay, and finished with gilt-bronze ormolu mounts and brass edging.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, original fire-gilded bronze mounts with precise hand-chasing, natural wear on the mechanical hinges, and age-related patination across the veneer.

Position the closed table against a neutral wall or behind a sofa as a console, paired with modern artwork or a minimalist table lamp to contrast the marquetry detailing.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent veneer lifting, clean regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, and apply a high-quality beeswax paste sparingly along the grain.
