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 pedestal desk typically consists of three separate sections for ease of transport: a top section containing frieze drawers and two supporting pedestals fitted with stacked drawers. They frequently feature leather writing surfaces, polished native or imported hardwoods such as walnut or mahogany, and decorative brass drop handles.

Nineteenth-century desks were crafted primarily from solid woods and fine veneers such as walnut, mahogany, and oak, with drawers lined in pine or mahogany. Writing surfaces were commonly lined with gilded leather or skiver, complemented by cast brass handles and steel mortise locks.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut or early machine dovetail joints, hand-turned brass hardware, and original lock mechanisms on the drawer fronts. The underside and back panels will show signs of hand-planed timber, aged patina, and natural wear consistent with historical use.

Position the desk centrally as a statement piece or against a feature wall paired with modern task lighting and clean-lined shelving. Combining rich timber tones with neutral wall colours creates a balanced contrast between traditional craftsmanship and modern interior aesthetics.

Maintain the wood by regularly dusting with a soft cloth and applying a beeswax polish along the grain once or twice a year. Keep the leather insert clean using a specialized leather conditioner and position the desk away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent shrinking or cracking.
