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

A deception table is a specialised style of eighteenth-century furniture designed to disguise functional interior features, such as washstands or commodes, behind the appearance of a standard side table or small chest.

These pieces were primarily constructed from solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, featuring hand-cut dovetail joinery, brass hinges, and simple cast brass lock escutcheon plates.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-sawn timber marks, original brass hardware with natural oxidisation, square tapered or turned legs, and concealed hinged lids or drop flaps.

This versatile piece functions effectively as a nightstand beside a bed, an accent piece in a hallway, or an end table flanking a sofa in a contemporary living space.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources and damp environments.
