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.

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 lowboy is a small table equipped with drawers, created during the 18th century to function primarily as a dressing table or side table, characterised by cabriole legs and a shaped lower apron.

Early 18th-century lowboys were typically constructed from solid oak or walnut, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, pegged timber construction, and cast brass drop handles with backplates.

Authentic pieces exhibit evidence of hand-planed timber surfaces, hand-sawn dovetails in drawer construction, uneven drawer bottoms, and natural wear or timber shrinkage corresponding with age.

A Georgian oak lowboy serves effectively as an entry hallway console, a bedroom dressing table, or an accent desk paired with contemporary lighting and wall art.

Regularly dust the surface using a soft dry cloth and apply clear beeswax polish once or twice per year, placing the piece away from direct heat sources and high humidity.
