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 18th-century Britain during the reign of King George III, these fold-over tables were specifically designed to facilitate card games such as whist, serving as key social furniture in private drawing rooms.

Period card tables were predominantly crafted from dense West Indian mahogany, featuring secondary timbers like oak or pine, brass card-cut hinges, and woven baize playing surfaces.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-sawn timber marks on undersides, hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, natural oxidisation on unpainted interior woods, and hand-carved leg details such as cabriole knees and claw feet.

When folded closed, the table functions as a compact hallway console table, a side table behind a sofa, or a decorative focal point in a narrow entryway.

Maintain the finish by applying high-quality beeswax sparingly once or twice a year, keeping the wood clear of direct sunlight, and maintaining stable ambient humidity to prevent timber movement.
