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.
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.

Originating in 18th-century Britain during the reign of King George III, a piecrust tripod table is an occasional table featuring a circular top with a raised, scalloped moulded edge, supported by a central turned pedestal and three cabriole legs.

These tables were primarily crafted from dense mahogany, valued for its grain density and durability. Construction typically involved hand-carved details, turned central columns, and legs joined to the pedestal base with dovetail or mortise and tenon joints.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut joinery, subtle asymmetrical hand-carving on the piecrust border, slight natural timber shrinkage across the grain of the solid top over time, and original patination on the underside of the woodwork.

A piecrust tripod table functions effectively as an occasional side table beside an armchair, placed in a reading alcove, or positioned in a foyer holding a single ceramic vessel or table lamp to contrast against contemporary upholstery.

Position the table away from direct sunlight, central heating radiators, and fluctuating humidity to prevent timber movement or surface cracking. Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a beeswax polish annually, buffing along the direction of the grain.
