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

A snap top table features a hinged mechanism mounted on a central pedestal, allowing the tabletop to tilt ninety degrees vertically when unlatched to conserve space.

Cabinetmakers primarily constructed these tables using solid dense hardwoods such as mahogany, ash, and oak, secured with cast brass catch mechanisms and iron fittings.

Authentic period examples feature original brass spring latches beneath the surface, hand-cut dovetail joints on the bearer blocks, and historical surface patina on the pedestal and feet.

When not configured for dining, the top can be tilted upright and placed against a wall or within an alcove to display the timber grain and maximize room circulation.

Dust the surface regularly with a microfibre cloth and apply clear beeswax polish annually, taking care to inspect and lubricate the brass tilt catch to preserve the mechanism.
