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

Refectory tables originated in the Middle Ages, primarily designed for use in the dining halls of monasteries and noble castles. Their long, narrow form and sturdy trestle construction accommodated large gatherings along communal seating benches.

Traditional refectory tables feature solid oak tops supported by heavy end trestles connected by a central horizontal stretcher rail. The structural components are joined using pegged mortise and tenon joints to ensure long-term stability.

Authentic refectory tables display hand-worked timber surfaces, wooden dowel joinery, and natural wear along the central stretcher rail where diners rested their feet. Natural patination and slight timber shrinkage along plank joints also indicate historical age.

Pair a substantial oak refectory table with contemporary metal-framed dining chairs or upholstered seating to create textural contrast. Positioning sleek modern lighting overhead balances the heavy timber base with current design aesthetics.

Clean solid oak surfaces using a soft cloth lightly dampened with water, avoiding abrasive chemicals. Applying a clear beeswax polish twice annually along the grain protects the timber and helps preserve its natural sheen.
