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 bureau plat is a French form of writing table that emerged in the late 17th century, featuring a flat top usually lined with leather, drawers in the frieze, and ornamental metal mounts.

Traditional bureau plats feature hardwood frames veneered with fine woods such as kingwood, tulipwood, or rosewood, adorned with gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts and a leather writing surface.

Authentic pieces often display hand-chased gilt-bronze mounts with maker marks or foundry stamps, dovetail drawer joints, hand-planed secondary timber, and natural wear consistent with age along the feet and drawer runners.

Position the table centrally in a study or living room to allow viewing from all angles, pairing it with modern task lighting or a contemporary chair to contrast the classical ornamentation.

Preserve the wood veneer by maintaining stable humidity levels away from direct heat sources, clean the leather writing top with specialist leather balm, and dust gilt-bronze mounts gently with a soft dry brush.
