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.

Originating in the 18th century during the reign of King George III, a kneehole desk features a flat writing surface above a central recessed cavity for legroom, flanked by vertical banks of drawers and usually containing a small central kneehole cupboard.

These pieces were predominantly crafted from solid and veneered mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, oak or pine secondary drawer linings, and cast brass fittings such as swan-neck handles and decorative escutcheons.

Authentic Georgian examples display hand-sawn timber marks, hand-cut dovetails, original pine or oak drawer linings, hand-cast brass hardware, and shaped bracket feet showing natural age-related wear and patination.

In modern interiors, these desks function as compact workstations for modern laptops, sophisticated hallway console tables, or elegant dressing tables when positioned beneath a minimalist wall mirror.

Maintain mahogany timber by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish annually, while avoiding direct sunlight, radiators, and sudden humidity fluctuations.
