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

Originating during the Qing Dynasty in China, opium tables were constructed as low, sturdy wooden platforms designed for lounging while socialising, drinking tea, or reclining.

These tables typically utilise dense regional hardwoods such as elm or rosewood, assembled using traditional mortise and tenon joinery without the use of metal nails.

Authentic examples feature hand-cut joinery, inward-curving legs inspired by horse-hoof forms, a mitred frame with a floating centre panel, and natural timber surface wear.

An opium table functions effectively as a low central coffee table, introducing warm timber tones and carved architectural detail to contemporary or minimalist spaces.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry cloth, apply a clear beeswax polish periodically to protect the finish, and avoid positioning the timber near direct heat sources.
