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 the 16th century and widely produced through the 18th century, a gateleg table is a type of drop-leaf table featuring legs that pivot outwards like gates to support hinged extension leaves.

These tables were predominantly constructed from solid native hardwoods such as oak, featuring mortise and tenon joinery, wooden peg fixings, and hand-turned leg balusters.

Authentic 18th-century examples display uneven hand-planed surfaces, hand-cut wooden hinges or iron rule joints, historical wear on the lower stretchers, and timber shrinkage across the top.

A gateleg table functions as a versatile dining surface or a space-saving side table against a wall when the leaves are lowered, paired with contemporary or understated seating.

Regular dusting with a soft cloth and periodic applications of natural beeswax maintain the timber surface, while keeping the item away from direct heat sources prevents timber movement and splitting.
