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.

During the Qing dynasty, low tables crafted from indigenous woods like Northern Elm (Yumu) were widely produced in regional workshops across China. Used for resting, writing, or serving tea, these functional domestic pieces reflected traditional carpentry techniques refined over centuries.

Traditional Chinese tables were assembled using complex mortise and tenon joinery without nails or screws. The design typically incorporates a mitred frame-and-panel top, cylindrical legs, corner aprons for stability, and lateral stretchers.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery, original wood shrinkage marks around the floating top panels, and natural surface wear. The underside often reveals hand-planed timber marks and remnants of original dark lacquer or stain coatings.

A low Chinese table works well as a coffee table in contemporary living rooms, offering natural texture to contrast against modern upholstered furniture. Its neutral wood tones integrate seamlessly into minimalist, eclectic, or rustic schemes.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry, soft cloth and keep the timber away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking. Applying a natural beeswax polish occasionally helps preserve the wood moisture and maintain its historic patina.
