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.
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 the eighteenth century, a dumb waiter is a tiered portable table designed with circular or folding trays mounted on a central pillar, created to allow guests to serve themselves without staff present during meals.

These pieces were typically crafted from solid dense mahogany, featuring hand-carved central columns, reeded or swept tripod legs, brass cap castors, and hand-cut dovetail or brass hinge mechanisms on drop-leaf sides.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-turned pillar details, period-appropriate brass castors with steel screws, natural patination under the tiers, and evidence of hand-planed timber or historical wear around folding leaf hinges.

In contemporary spaces, a dumb waiter functions effectively as a tiered plant stand, an occasional bar cart for glassware and decanters, or a functional side table in an alcove or reading nook.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish twice yearly along the grain, while avoiding liquid cleaners on brass castors to preserve original oxidisation.
