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 partners desk is a large double-sided pedestal desk originally designed in 18th-century Britain to allow two commercial partners or professionals to work facing each other simultaneously.

These desks were predominantly crafted from solid mahogany or oak, featuring hand-cut drawer linings, gold-tooled leather writing surfaces, and solid brass hardware including knobs and keyhole escutcheons.

Authentic George III desks typically feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, period brass locks, wear along the plinth base, and identical or complementary drawer and cupboard configurations on both sides.

Position the desk centrally within a room to highlight its double-sided construction, pairing the dark timber with a modern swivel chair or traditional leather desk chair to create a focused workspace.

Dust the timber surfaces regularly with a soft cloth, apply natural beeswax along the grain twice a year, and clean the leather inset with a specialist leather conditioner to prevent cracking.
