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 Regency Pembroke table is a rectangular occasional table from the early 19th century featuring hinged drop-leaf flaps supported by wooden brackets, typically accompanied by small drawers and slender turned legs.

These tables were primarily crafted from dense hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, often featuring brass drawer pulls, metal castors, and oak or pine secondary drawer linings.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, original brass castors, period-correct hinged wooden support brackets (fly brackets), and natural wear on the underside of the drop leaves.

With its compact footprint, a Pembroke table functions effectively as an end-of-sofa table, a bedside nightstand, or a flexible lamp table in a living area or study.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a beeswax polish annually, while protecting the wood surface from direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme humidity changes.
