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

During the mid-19th century, particularly in Northern and Central Europe, cabinetmakers favoured highly figured native timbers such as birch root and burl birch. These woods were celebrated for their complex, marbled grain patterns and were frequently utilized in Biedermeier and late Neoclassical designs.

Tables from this period feature solid wood frameworks often veneered with highly figured birch root cuts. Construction generally relies on traditional joinery, including hand-cut mortise and tenon joints for the tripod legs and a central turned or faceted pedestal support.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of period craftsmanship, such as irregular hand-cut saw marks on unexposed undersides, genuine surface patina, and natural shrinkage or slight distortion in circular tops over time. Original joinery and hand-carved details also indicate age.

The light colour and striking natural grain of birch root pair effectively with minimalist or contemporary seating. Positioned beside an armchair or sofa, the table acts as a sculptural accent piece that adds warm timber tones and historic character.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the timbers moisture. Keep the item away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity changes to prevent veneer lifting or cracking.
