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.

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.

Popularised in 18th-century Britain, Georgian tilt-top tripod tables feature a circular top mounted on a hinged block atop a turned central pillar supported by three cabriole legs. The mechanism allowed the tabletop to tilt vertically, enabling efficient storage against walls when not in use for serving tea or display.

Dense Cuban or West Indian mahogany was the primary timber chosen for its durability, stable grain, and deep colour. Construction relied on brass or iron catches, hand-turned pillars, and hand-carved dovetail joins securing the legs to the base block.

Authentic examples display hand-sawn markings beneath the top, irregular hand-cut dovetails where the legs join the column, and natural age-related oxidisation around brass latches. Manual lathe turning on the central column often creates subtle structural variations rather than modern symmetry.

Place the table adjacent to a armchair as an occasional lamp stand, or tilt the circular top upright to highlight the timber grain in an empty corner. Pairing rich mahogany wood with contemporary linen or neutral decor provides balance in modern spaces.

Position the item away from direct heat sources and sunlight to stop the wood from shrinking or splitting. Clean with a dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically to nourish the surface, avoiding aerosol cleaners containing silicone.
