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.

An envelope card table is an occasional table constructed with four triangular hinged flaps on the top surface that rotate and fold out to reveal a expanded playing surface.

These tables were typically crafted using solid hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, fitted with counter-sunk brass hinges, period castors, and baize lining on the inner surface.

Authentic period examples feature counter-sunk brass leaf hinges, hand-cut drawer dovetail joints, period castors, and genuine age-related patination across the timber.

An envelope card table functions effectively as an occasional side table in a living room, hallway, or study, offering a compact footprint while preserving historical character.

Position the piece away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent timber shrinkage, dust regularly with a lint-free cloth, and apply beeswax polish twice per year.
