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 drapers table is a long, flat wooden counter originally designed for use in 19th-century drapery shops and haberdasheries. Merchants used the expansive surface to roll out, measure, and cut bolts of fabric for customers.

These tables were typically crafted from durable hardwoods such as oak, elm, or pine to withstand heavy daily commercial use. Construction often featured pegged joinery, thick planked tops, and lower tiers or drawers for additional storage.

Authentic pieces generally display signs of commercial wear, such as surface indentations or faint measurement markings along the edge. Look for hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, natural age-related shrinkage in the wood planks, and original hand-carved support structures.

In contemporary settings, these long tables are frequently repurposed as central kitchen islands, expansive hall consoles, or server tables in open-plan dining rooms. The lower shelf provides space for displaying large ceramics, woven baskets, or stacked books.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the wood. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and liquid spills to prevent warping or finish degradation.
