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.

This 19th-century Dutch Rococo writing bureau is made from warm brown burr walnut veneer with brass handles and escutcheons. The bombe-shaped profile holds three serpentine drawers over claw and ball front feet, while the hinged slant-front opens to reveal fitted interior pigeonholes and small drawers. A patina covers the timber surfaces, showing signs of antique age and use. Dimensions are 105 cm high, 104 cm wide, and 52 cm deep. In a home today, this piece provides writing and storage space in a study, library, or living room. The fall front folds down to create a practical desk surface, and the lower drawers store paperwork, stationery, and household items. The fitted interior compartments organise letters and small accessories, keeping the workspace tidy while adding traditional character to the room.

FAQs

A Dutch bombe bureau is a writing desk characterised by a swollen or convex lower section housing drawers, topped with a sloped drop-front lid that opens to reveal a fitted writing compartment.

These bureaus typically feature dense timber frames veneered with highly figured burr walnut, oak drawer linings, and cast brass hardware including drop handles and keyhole escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine secondary timbers, natural shrinkage lines in thin veneers, original handle placement markings, and hand-carved claw-and-ball feet.

Position the bureau against a central wall in a study, hallway, or living area, pairing its dark figure with light neutral walls and understated contemporary lighting to contrast historic craftsmanship with modern space.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent veneer lifting or fading. Regular dusting with a soft microfibre cloth and occasional light applications of beeswax will protect the polished surface finish.
