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 late 18th-century Britain, George III tea tables feature a folding top designed to rest against a wall when closed and expand for entertaining. They typically exhibit Neoclassical influences, such as clean geometric outlines, delicate stringing inlays, and square tapered legs.

Craftsmen predominantly utilised dense mahogany for the exterior surfaces due to its deep colour and durability. Secondary timbers like pine or oak formed internal framework, while boxwood or satinwood stringing provided decorative contrast alongside cast brass hardware.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of hand craftsmanship, including hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-planed secondary timbers, and natural surface shrinkage over time. Original brass castors, authentic patina, and age-appropriate wear around hinges also indicate period origin.

A demilune table functions effectively as a hallway console, occupying minimal floor space while providing a surface for lamps or decorative ceramics. Its warm wood tones contrast balance into neutral modern schemes when paired with contemporary artwork.

Regular dusting with a dry microfibre cloth prevents particle accumulation without degrading the surface finish. Applying a natural beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year protects the timber and preserves its deep sheen.
