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.

This nineteenth-century Chinese occasional side table comes in dark brown hardwood and marble. The circular top holds a mottled pink and grey marble insert, framed by a reeded edge and a pierced apron carved with foliage, leaves, and berries. A central pedestal features mythical dragons wrapped around the stem, leading down to three splayed legs with claw feet. It stands 81 cm high. Placed beside a sofa or in a gentleman's library, the piece serves as a functional display surface or accent table for small lamps and decorative items. The compact footprint fits easily into corners or smaller reception rooms, bringing traditional craftsmanship and textured detail to interior spaces.

FAQs

Tables from this era typically feature dense dark hardwoods such as rosewood or hongmu, decorated with intricate hand-carved relief work, pierced aprons, and central inset marble panels designed to withstand varying humidity levels during export.

These tables combine indigenous Chinese hardwoods or tropical timbers with variegated marble slabs, often sourced from Dali in Yunnan province, cut into circular or octagonal panels to fit flush within the wooden framework.

Authentic period pieces exhibit traditional joinery without modern nails or screws, natural aged patina on the underside of timber, floating wood or stone panel construction, and hand-carved details with smooth, worn edges from handling over time.

This type of occasional table functions as an accent piece alongside upholstered seating, placed in an entry foyer, or used as a dedicated pedestal to elevate table lamps, ceramics, or sculpture.

Dust the surfaces regularly using a soft, dry cloth. Clean the marble insert with a pH-neutral stone cleaner to prevent dulling, and apply a high-grade beeswax paste to the carved hardwood annually to protect the finish.
