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.

Originating in England during the eighteenth century, the partners desk was created for financial executives and business partners to work opposite each other at a single shared piece of furniture.

These desks were constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, featuring a tool-decorated leather inset on the top writing surface and cast brass drawer handles.

Authentic examples feature functional drawers or cupboards on both working sides, hand-cut dovetail joints within the drawer boxes, original brass hardware, and natural timber oxidisation.

Position the desk centrally within the room rather than against a wall to showcase its double-sided construction, pairing it with a tailored leather swivel chair and classic task lighting.

Apply a natural beeswax polish along the grain of the oak, condition the leather inset with specialised leather balm, and position the desk away from direct heat sources.
