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 19th-century mahogany writing table is a refined functional desk surface designed for correspondence, featuring built-in drawers for stationery and a compact frame suitable for libraries, drawing rooms, or home offices.

These tables were constructed primarily using solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over pine drawer linings, incorporating hand-cut dovetail joints, turned timber knobs, and horizontal stretcher supports.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joinery in the drawers, natural wood grain variation with age-related patination, smooth hand-finished undersides, and turned decorative elements such as leg supports or corner pendants.

Position the table against a neutral backdrop as a focal desk or entry console, pairing the warm timber tones with contemporary metal task lighting, framed artwork, or modern seating.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish twice a year following the timber grain. Avoid placing the furniture near direct heat sources or in intense sunlight to prevent timber movement and finish discolouration.
