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

Popularised during the 19th century, mirror-back serving tables combined functional surface area with reflective glass to enhance light within dining rooms and entry halls, often featuring ornate carved oak craftsmanship.

These tables were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as English oak, walnut, or mahogany, featuring hand-carved joinery, turned pillars, and mirrored glass panels held within elaborate frames.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved decorative motifs, hand-drawn drawer dovetails, authentic hand-silvered glass mirror plates, and natural wood aging with surface patina consistent with 19th-century construction techniques.

Position the piece in a large hallway or dining area as a focal anchor, pairing its dark oak tones with neutral wall colours, contemporary ceramic accessories, and minimal lighting fixtures.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, keeping the item away from direct heat sources and controlling room humidity.
