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

A monks bench, also known as a chair-table or hutch table, is a piece of metamorphic furniture where the backrest flips down on wooden pins to rest on the armrests, transforming the seat into a table top.

These pieces are traditionally crafted from solid oak, featuring joinery techniques such as pegged mortise and tenon joints, turned support legs, and hand-carved decorative motifs.

Authentic period examples display signs of genuine wear around the wooden pivot pins, uneven shrinkage across wide oak planks, hand-carved details, and historical wax patina in lower-recessed carved areas.

Position the piece in an entryway or hallway as functional seating, or place it in a reading corner where the tilt-top function provides flexible surface area alongside traditional wooden character.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a high-grade beeswax polish annually, while avoiding direct heat sources and excessive moisture that could warp the solid timber.
