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.

This Victorian side table combines a metal toleware tray top with a wooden stand. The black painted tray features a serpentine scalloped rim, integrated handles, and hand-painted polychrome floral and butterfly motifs across the surface. It is supported by four faux bamboo legs with gilt bands and an X-stretcher beneath. The piece measures 51 cm high, 74 cm wide, and 57 cm deep. In a contemporary interior, this side table suits placement at the end of a sofa or beside an armchair as a compact surface for drinks or books. Its English country house aesthetic integrates comfortably into both traditional and eclectic living spaces.

FAQs

A Victorian toleware table typically features a hand-painted, lacquered sheet metal or tin tray decorated with floral or chinoiserie patterns, resting upon a wooden or faux bamboo stand.

Toleware items are fabricated from painted or japanned sheet iron and tin, frequently decorated with gilded highlights or mother-of-pearl inlay, and supported by turned timber bases.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-applied paintwork showing age-consistent craquelure, weightier hand-cut sheet metal, and original joinery on the supporting timber stand.

This style of occasional table works well as a side table adjacent to armchairs or sofas, adding historic character to contemporary or layered traditional rooms.

Dust surfaces gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid water or chemical detergents, which can cause corrosion or degrade the hand-painted finish.
