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

Early 18th-century Georgian drop-leaf tables typically feature delicate cabriole legs terminating in pad or club feet, showcasing unadorned proportions that highlight the natural grain of dense mahogany timber.

Dense imported mahogany was primarily utilised, joined with rule joints along the hinged drop leaves and supported by swing-out legs or wooden gate mechanisms.

Look for hand-sawn timber surfaces beneath the top, irregular hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, original iron strap hinges, and natural surface patination around the pad feet.

Drop-leaf tables serve as flexible space-saving dining solutions in compact urban spaces, or as narrow console tables in entryways when both leaves are lowered.

Dust regularly using a soft microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight.
