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

Twin pedestal desks gained prominence during the 18th and 19th centuries as functional workspaces for offices, libraries, and studies, often designed in three modular parts for easier transportation.

They are typically constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany or oak, featuring dovetail joints in the drawer construction and inset tooled leather writing surfaces.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut dovetails, traditional wood shrinkage cracks, old-growth timber grain, and hand-turned wooden knobs or brass hardware consistent with nineteenth-century cabinet making.

Pair the traditional dark wood and leather surface with a minimalist modern chair and contemporary lighting to create a balanced study space that highlights the historical character.

Dust regularly with a dry cloth, nourish the mahogany periodically with traditional beeswax, and clean the leather insert gently with a damp cloth without using harsh chemical cleaners.
