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.

Dutch marquetry furniture from this period is recognized by intricate floral, foliate, and scroll inlay patterns set into veneers of native dark woods like walnut. Originating in the Netherlands during the late 17th and 18th centuries, these pieces often feature curved or serpentine fronts and decorative brass hardware.

Tables from this era typically feature solid walnut or oak carcasses covered in thin walnut veneers and fruitwood inlays. Drawer joints were hand-dovetailed, and legs were either turned or tapered, held together with traditional mortise and tenon joinery.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age such as slight irregular shrinkage in the veneer, hand-cut dovetail joints, and oxidisation on the underside of timber. Hardware like brass escutcheons and handles show wear consistent with age and hand-cast manufacturing.

Incorporate the table as an accent piece in an entryway or living space alongside contemporary art and neutral soft furnishings. The contrast between dark timber marquetry and minimalist modern elements highlights the historic detail of the woodwork.

Keep the timber away from direct sunlight, central heating vents, and high humidity to prevent veneer lifting or wood splitting. Clean with a soft dry cloth and apply a beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the finish.
