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.
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.
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.

A George I walnut bureau is a sloped-front writing desk originating from the early 18th century, typically featuring figural walnut veneers, a hinged writing flap, and graduated drawers below.

These pieces were primarily crafted using oak or pine carcases overlaid with rich walnut or burr walnut veneers, secured with hand-cut dovetail joints and fitted with brass hardware.

Authentic early Georgian bureaux display hand-sawn dovetails, original oak drawer linings, feather or crossbanded inlaid borders, and natural patination across the surfaces and handles.

Place the bureau against a neutral wall paired with modern abstract art or contemporary brass lighting to create a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and sunlight, dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish twice yearly to protect the finish.
