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

A Victorian kneehole desk is a flat-topped writing table constructed with a central opening for the sitters legs, flanked by pedestals containing stacked drawers and often a recessed central cupboard.

Victorian kneehole desks were commonly crafted from hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and oak, featuring cast brass handles, keyhole escutcheons, and hand-dovetailed drawer joints.

Authentic pieces generally show hand-cut dovetail joinery inside the drawers, original cast brass hardware, period-correct lock mechanisms, and light natural wear consistent with historical use.

A Victorian kneehole desk can serve as a functional statement piece in a dedicated study, home office, or library alongside modern desk lighting and contemporary seating.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth, keep the timber away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking, and apply a quality beeswax polish periodically to protect the finish.
