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

A Chinese table screen is a small, decorative panel mounted on a stand or hinged frame, traditionally placed on a scholars desk to shield writing materials from draughts and prevent ink from drying too quickly.

They were typically constructed from dense tropical hardwoods such as hongmu, zitan, or rosewood, and decorated with lacquered panels, carved relief work, or mother-of-pearl (nacre) inlay.

Authentic 19th-century inlay features hand-cut shell pieces fitted directly into hand-carved recess grooves in the timber, displaying natural iridescence and subtle surface variation.

A table screen serves as a striking focal point on a hallway console, sideboard, or desk, pairing well with understated modern ceramics or structured greenery.

Keep the screen away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, and clean the wood and inlay gently using a dry, soft microfibre cloth without harsh liquid cleaners.
