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

An 18th-century painted bureau is a slant-front writing desk featuring an angled drop-down lid above a series of drawers, finished with oil-based or milk paint coatings.

These bureaux were crafted from solid hardwoods or softwoods such as pine and oak, fitted with cast brass escutcheons, handles, and forged iron locks.

Authentic pieces feature hand-sawn timber panels, hand-cut dovetail joints, forged nails, and natural paint wear around contact areas like keyholes and drawer pulls.

Position the bureau as a focal piece against a neutral wall, pairing it with contemporary lighting or modern artwork to create a balanced, eclectic look.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, liquid polishes, or water, which can damage distressed historical paintwork.
