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 Louis XV style writing table, often referred to as a bureau plat, is characterised by S-shaped cabriole legs, serpentine contours, intricate wood veneers, and decorative cast metal mounts.

Traditional French writing desks were constructed using timber frames layered with fine veneers such as kingwood, rosewood, or walnut, frequently featuring a leather writing insert and cast brass decorative mounts.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, evidence of hand-worked timber, natural patination on metal fittings, and aged wear on the leather writing surface.

An antique writing table can serve as a focal point in a modern study or hallway, paired with modern task lighting and a minimalist chair to balance historical and contemporary elements.

Position the desk away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent wood cracking and leather drying; dust the timber with a dry cloth and apply dedicated leather conditioner occasionally.
