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.

A Pembroke sewing table is a compact 18th or 19th-century occasional table featuring hinged drop leaves and a fabric sewing pouch suspended beneath a frieze drawer, originally designed for needlework and embroidery.

Fine dense hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or satinwood were typically paired with hand-sewn silk or pleated cotton work bags, brass drawer knobs, and brass castors.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, brass castors, hand-turned drawer knobs, and original hinged wooden gate-legs or fly-rails supporting the drop leaves.

Position this versatile piece as an end table beside a sofa, a compact bedside table, or an accent piece in a reading nook or hallway.

Dust the wood regularly with a soft lint-free cloth, apply natural beeswax sparingly along the grain, and clean the fabric pouch gently with a soft brush attachment.
