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

Designed during the 18th and 19th centuries, fold-over card tables served as multi-functional reception room furniture. When closed, they functioned as decorative console tables against walls, and when opened and swiveled, they provided a velvet or baize-lined playing surface for popular parlour games.

Craftsmen commonly utilised high-grade timbers such as flame mahogany, rosewood veneers, and walnut. Interior playing surfaces were lined with woolen baize, and hardware often featured cast brass paw feet, heavy brass hinges, and concealed steel swivel mechanisms.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints on internal framing, natural wear on underlying support runners, original brass castors, and period-correct veneer thickness. The underside usually shows hand-sawn timber marks rather than machine-milled modern finishes.

In contemporary interiors, an antique card table operates efficiently as a hallway console table or behind a sofa. Styled with a modern table lamp, decorative ceramics, or framed artwork, it adds historical texture without occupying excessive floor space.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year following the wood grain. Keep the table away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent the wood from drying, cracking, or fading.
