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.

Designed during the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, Georgian card tables feature hinged fold-over tops supported by gate-leg mechanisms or sliding rear legs. They served dual functions as decorative wall tables when closed and playing surfaces for card games when opened.

Cabinetmakers predominantly used solid mahogany, satinwood, and fine wood veneers, joined with hand-cut dovetails and wooden or brass hinges. The interior surfaces often featured playing felt or polished timber, supported by straight tapered or turned legs.

Authentic period examples show hand-planed underside timber surfaces, period-correct brass or wooden hinges, and subtle variations in hand-cut joinery. Authentic pieces also display age-appropriate patination and operational wear along the leg action and folding seams.

Positioned against an entry hallway or living room wall, demilune card tables function as slim console surfaces for table lamps, ceramics, or framed art. Their symmetrical proportions allow them to flank doorways, windows, or fireplaces when arranged as a matching pair.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the wood grain when necessary. Maintain stable ambient humidity and position the timber away from direct heat sources and bright sunlight to prevent shrinkage and surface fading.
