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

Developed in 18th-century Britain, a dumb waiter is a tiered piece of furniture designed to hold food, drink, or dining accoutrements, allowing diners to serve themselves without servants present.

18th-century dumb waiters were predominantly crafted from dense mahogany or native hardwoods, featuring hand-turned central columns, moulded circular tiers, and tripod bases joined with hand-cut joinery.

Authentic pieces feature graduated circular tiers with moulded edges, hand-turned central supports, carved tripod legs with pad or claw-and-ball feet, and historical signs of hand-planing on the undersides.

A mahogany tier table functions effectively as a distinctive side table in a living room, a stand for potted botanicals, or a dedicated home bar display for glassware and spirits.

Dust regularly with a clean microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or discolouration.
