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.

Emerging in the late 16th and 17th centuries, the gateleg table features hinged leaves supported by pivoting legs, designed to offer adaptable surface area in historic British homes.

These tables were traditionally crafted from native English hardwoods such as oak and ash, utilising mortise and tenon joinery secured with hand-cut wooden pegs.

Authentic period pieces display hand-planed timber surfaces, irregular hand-carved pegs, subtle wood shrinkage along the grain, and deep oxidisation within the grain.

Compact gateleg tables function effectively as occasional side tables alongside minimalist soft furnishings, adding historical depth and material contrast to modern rooms.

Preserve original patination by applying high-grade beeswax polish periodically, keeping the timber away from direct heat sources, and maintaining steady relative humidity.
