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

Originating in the 18th century, butlers trays were designed for domestic servants to carry drinks, meals, or tea service from kitchens to dining or reception rooms. The removable or hinged tray could be carried independently or set down upon a lightweight, collapsible X-frame stand for convenient serving.

Traditional examples are most commonly constructed from dense timbers such as mahogany, oak, or walnut. Features include hand-cut dovetail joints, solid brass flush hinges for drop-down flaps, and turned wooden legs configured into an X-frame folding mechanism.

Authentic period pieces display hand-carved cut-out handles, period-correct brass ironmongery showing subtle wear, and natural oxidation along the underside of the timber. Original stands often show wear marks where the tray edges rest against the support rails.

These versatile items function exceptionally well as compact drinks bars, occasional side tables alongside seating, or decorative display surfaces in narrow hall spaces. Their folding construction allows them to be easily stored or relocated according to entertainment needs.

Dust the timber regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year, buffing gently along the grain. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and finish cracking, and avoid abrasive cleaners on the brass hardware.
