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.

Originating in late eighteenth and early nineteenth-century Britain, these tables feature a circular top set upon a central pedestal with tripod splayed legs. Designed with a tilt-top mechanism, they allowed large tables to be folded vertically and stored against the wall when not in use.

These tables were typically crafted from solid West Indian or Cuban mahogany, valued for its dense grain and durability. Construction includes hand-cut dovetails on the pedestal block, reeded or swept legs, and brass toe caps with castors.

Authentic period examples display hand-sawn tool marks beneath the tabletop, original brass latch mechanisms, and natural wood shrinkage across the grain causing the circular top to become slightly out-of-round over time.

A circular mahogany table functions effectively as a focal point in a spacious entry hall or as a four-seat dining table in modern living spaces. The tilt-top feature also enables it to serve as a sculptural accent placed upright against a perimeter wall.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a soft dry cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain. Keep the table away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent veneer movement or wood cracking.
