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

Originating in 18th-century France, Louis XV style card tables feature serpentine outlines, delicate cabriole legs, and intricate floral marquetry designed for gaming salons.

These pieces frequently combine exotic timber veneers such as kingwood and tulipwood with delicate floral wood marquetry and cast gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts.

Authentic examples feature hand-cut joinery, original patinated bronze sabots, solid oak interior framing, and natural age-related craquelure within the finish.

Position the piece against a neutral wall as an accent console table, framed by contemporary artwork or paired with minimalist lighting to highlight the woodwork.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth, keep the table away from direct heat sources to prevent veneer lifting, and apply beeswax polish sparingly.
