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

Originating in the 19th century, a butler tray on stand is a portable tray supported by a folding or fixed frame, designed for serving refreshments in domestic settings. The Gothic Revival movement incorporated architectural details such as carved arches, shells, and tracery into the tray gallery.

These pieces were constructed from solid oak using mortise and tenon joinery, featuring turned leg supports, cross-frame folding mechanisms, and hand-carved galleries with integrated handle cutouts.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut joinery, subtle variations in the turned components, natural wear around folding pivot joints and handles, and age-appropriate patination on original oak surfaces.

A butler tray stand functions effectively as an occasional drinks table, bedside table, or side table alongside a sofa, providing practical surface space while adding historical texture.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the wood grain annually, keeping the item away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage.
