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 pedestal desk consists of a flat writing surface supported by two independent pedestals containing drawers, leaving an open central area for the sitters legs known as the kneehole.

19th-century desks were typically constructed using flame mahogany veneers over oak or pine carcases, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer lining, solid brass hardware, and inset leather writing tops.

Look for signs of period construction including hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine drawer linings, cast brass handles with natural patination, and original steel or brass lock mechanisms.

Position the desk centrally in a modern study or living room, pairing rich timber tones with neutral wall palettes, contemporary lighting, and modern textiles to create a balanced scheme.

Keep timber away from direct heat sources, apply beeswax polish twice annually along the grain, and clean the leather top using a slightly damp cloth followed by specialized leather conditioner.
