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

Victorian centre tables were designed as focal points for drawing rooms or foyers during the 19th century, featuring ornate carving, rich wood veneers, and geometric or rounded tops intended to be viewed from all sides.

Craftsmen frequently utilised burr walnut, rosewood, and mahogany for the primary structure, decorating surfaces with intricate floral or foliate marquetry made from contrasting hardwoods and boxwood inlays.

Authentic Victorian pieces showcase natural grain variations in the burr veneer, hand-carved solid wood bases, period-correct brass castors, and signs of age-related patination underneath the tabletop frame.

Position the table in a spacious entryway or grand hallway as a focal piece, topped with a ceramic vessel or decorative objects to balance traditional woodwork with modern architecture.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer lifting, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish periodically following the direction of the grain.
