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.

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

These tables were predominantly crafted from solid dense mahogany, featuring hand-lathe turned central support columns, hand-carved tripod legs, and circular tray shelves with raised moulded edges.

Authentic Georgian examples feature hand-cut joinery, variable hand-planed surface markings underneath the trays, original iron or brass fittings, and evidence of hand-carved reeding or spiral turning on the central baluster.

In contemporary homes, a two-tier dumb waiter functions effectively as an end table beside a sofa, a compact home bar stand for decanters and glassware, or a tiered plant display in an alcove.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent shrinkage or splitting, clean liquid spills immediately, and apply a natural beeswax polish twice yearly to preserve the original finish.
