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.

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 18th century, these slender tripod stands were designed to hold a powder bowl, washbasin, or wig block in private dressing rooms. The central miniature drawers were crafted to hold small personal accessories such as patches, jewellery, or hair powder.

These stands were predominantly crafted from dense Cuban or West Indian mahogany, chosen for its stability and rich grain pattern. Secondary elements often include brass drawer knobs and turned column supports.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut dovetail joints on the small central drawers, pad feet or cabriole legs, hand-turned upright supports, and evidence of historic hand-planing on unseen underside surfaces.

In modern interior design, these functional antiques are frequently repurposed as decorative plant pedestals, botanical display stands, or narrow sculptural accents in alcoves and foyers.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent wood shrinkage and finish fading.
