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 Carlton House desk is a distinctive type of writing table featuring a curved superstructure fitted with small drawers and compartments, originally designed for the Prince of Wales at Carlton House in the late 18th century.

These pieces are typically constructed from high-grade timber cores such as satinwood or mahogany, embellished with fine marquetry, hand-painted panels, stringing, and fitted with leather writing surfaces.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery, hand-cut dovetails in the drawer construction, genuine hand-painted details rather than transfers, and natural ageing of the timber and varnish.

This type of statement furniture serves as a focal point in a study or living space, pairing well with minimalist modern seating to highlight the intricate craftsmanship through contrast.

Preserve antique satinwood by keeping it out of direct sunlight, maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, and cleaning only with a soft, dry cloth without harsh chemical polishes.
