Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team.

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 medieval monasteries, refectory tables feature a long, narrow top supported by trestle ends. The Arts and Crafts movement revived this form in the late 19th century, emphasizing traditional hand-craftsmanship, exposed joinery, and honest expression of solid wood.

Traditional refectory tables utilize solid timber, typically quartersawn oak, fastened with pegged mortise and tenon joints or tusked tenons. A central stretcher connects the vertical end supports to provide structural stability without metal fasteners.

Look for structural joinery details such as exposed pegs, tusked tenons, hand-planed top surfaces, and medullary rays in quartersawn oak. Authentic pieces show genuine age-related wear around footrests and lack modern machine screws or synthetic adhesives.

Pair a heavy oak refectory table with contemporary dining chairs, modern pendant lighting, or minimalist neutral ceramics to create visual contrast while highlighting the rich grain and craftsmanship of the antique timber.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish along the wood grain twice yearly. Protect the timber surface from direct heat, excessive moisture, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
