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

Designed during the 18th century, a Georgian architects table is a specialised writing desk featuring mechanical elements, such as sliding tops or pull-out writing surfaces, originally crafted for draughtsmen, engineers, and architects.

These tables were predominantly constructed from solid mahogany or high-grade mahogany veneers, utilising hand-cut dovetail joinery, brass hardware fittings, and tool-embossed leather writing surfaces.

Authentic 18th-century examples display hand-planed timber construction, period-correct cast brass drop handles, traditional sliding wooden runners, and natural oxidisation on unpolished undersides.

Position the piece in a study, library, or hallway as a functional accent, pairing dark mahogany timber with modern neutral wall colours and contemporary task lighting to accentuate historical craftsmanship.

Dust regularly using a dry microfiber cloth, apply natural beeswax along the timber grain, and avoid placing the desk near direct radiators or heat sources to prevent wood shrinkage.
