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 in the late 19th century, these versatile tables were designed for portability, commonly used for garden parties, afternoon tea, or as temporary occasional tables in Victorian verandas and reception rooms.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, featuring scissor-hinge or X-frame mechanisms joined with metal pins, screws, or mortise and tenon joinery.

Look for hand-finished timber edge profiles, authentic period hardware with natural patination, evidence of age-related wear along folding pivot points, and appropriate timber oxidation on the underside of the tabletop.

Position the table alongside a sofa or armchair as a flexible side table, or use it within a sunroom, hallway, or reading corner to hold books, drinks, or decorative ceramics.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply a high-quality beeswax polish along the grain once or twice a year, keep the folding joints clean, and avoid placing the item near direct heat sources.
