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

An Edwardian pedestal desk typically features a three-part construction comprising two drawer columns supporting a flat top. Produced between 1901 and 1910, these pieces often feature lighter proportions than Victorian predecessors, clean architectural mouldings, and high-quality timber veneers such as walnut or mahogany.

Edwardian desks were built using solid timbers like oak, mahogany, and walnut, often paired with decorative wood veneers. Tops frequently incorporated gilded or blind-tooled leather writing inserts, while drawer linings were crafted from solid pine or oak using dovetail joinery.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut or early machine dovetail joints, original brass or turned wood drawer handles, and hand-tooled leather surfaces showing natural patina. The timber typically demonstrates rich graining and natural age-related wear around the plinth base and kneehole.

Place the desk centrally in a home library or dedicated workspace to showcase the finished back and sides. Pair it with a contemporary desk lamp, neutral wall tones, and modern artwork to create a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and minimalist aesthetics.

Maintain the wood with periodic applications of natural beeswax, wiping along the direction of the grain. Clean the leather surface with a soft, dry cloth and apply a specialized leather conditioner annually to prevent drying or cracking, keeping the desk away from direct heat sources.
