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 Punjab region of India during the late 19th century, Hoshiapur tables were created for export to Europe during the Raj period, featuring intricate bone tesserae set into indigenous hardwoods.

These tables typically utilise dense hardwoods such as sheesham or rosewood, inlaid with hand-cut bone or mother-of-pearl, supported by foldable bases linked with wooden pivot joints.

Authentic period pieces exhibit subtle irregularities in the hand-cut inlay, natural oxidisation on the underside timber, traditional joinery techniques, and signs of age-related shrinkage in the solid wood.

Position the piece as an accent or side table to contrast against modern upholstery, pairing intricate surface patterning with neutral tones and minimalist decor.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft dry microfiber cloth, avoid harsh chemical cleaners or excess moisture, and maintain a stable indoor humidity to prevent wood movement and lifting of the inlay.
