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.
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.

A partners desk is a large, double-sided executive desk designed to accommodate two people working opposite each other, originally popularised in the eighteenth century for business partners.

These desks traditionally feature solid hardwood frames finished with burr walnut veneers, brass drop handles, and a gilt-tooled leather writing surface.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved timber accents, dovetail drawer joinery, natural wear patterns around the kneehole, and traditional gilding on the inset leather top.

Position the desk as a central focal point in a modern study or library, paired with contemporary task lighting and neutral wall paint to complement the dark wood tones.

Dust the wood regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply beeswax polish periodically along the grain, and clean the leather top using specialized leather conditioner to prevent drying.
