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.

Late Qing Dynasty furniture is recognised for intricate hand carving, dark hardwood construction, and traditional joinery made without nails. Design elements frequently include stylized aprons, subtle cabriole legs, and balanced geometric proportions.

Traditional Chinese tables were constructed using dense indigenous hardwoods such as Zitan, Huanghuali, Hongmu, and chicken-wing wood. These timbers provided structural durability and allowed for detailed openwork carving.

Authentic period tables display floating panel construction, mortise-and-tenon joinery, natural shrinkage along timber joints, and hand-carved decorative aprons rather than machine-milled details.

A Chinese hardwood console table serves effectively in an entryway, behind a sofa, or along a narrow hallway. Pairing the dark timber with minimalist art or contemporary lighting creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a soft, lint-free cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish periodically. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and extreme moisture fluctuations to prevent timber movement or splitting.
