Archival Detail
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.

Originating in the 19th century, a Victorian games sewing table is a dual-purpose piece of occasional furniture that combines a flat top, often featuring an inlaid chessboard, with a storage cavity or basket beneath for needlework materials.

These pieces are commonly constructed from figurative woods such as walnut, rosewood, or mahogany, featuring fine marquetry, geometric wood inlays, turned pedestals, and hand-carved support legs.

Authentic 19th-century examples display hand-cut dovetail joints inside the storage well, hand-carved decorative motifs on the base, natural age-related oxidisation on the underside, and functional brass lock mechanisms.

Position the table as an occasional side table in a living room, within a reading nook, or inside a bay window, allowing its detailed inlaid top to serve as a functional decorative accent.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber movement, and apply high-grade beeswax polish periodically along the direction of the grain to nourish the finish.
