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.

A kursi is a Middle Eastern hexagonal or octagonal table or cabinet traditionally crafted in Cairo during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, often featuring Mamluk Revival design elements and calligraphic inscriptions.

These pieces are constructed from sheet brass adorned with hand-punched openwork lattice, copper rivets, and detailed silver or white-metal wire inlays depicting Arabic script and geometric motifs.

Authentic pieces feature dense Thuluth calligraphy, hand-hammered copper and silver inlay flush with the surface, hand-pierced fretwork, and hand-fitted brass framework exhibiting natural historical patina.

This hexagonal accent piece functions effectively as an end table, bedside nightstand, or decorative accent cabinet alongside contemporary upholstered furniture to add visual texture and architectural interest.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid chemical metal cleaners, abrasive polishes, or moisture, which can loosen delicate metal inlays and degrade the historic surface patina.
