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 1920s kneehole desk is characterised by a central recess for the users legs, flanked by two pedestals containing multiple drawers, typically constructed during the interwar period.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a dry cloth and occasionally applying natural beeswax to nourish the wood, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive moisture.

This piece works effectively as a functional workspace within a study or home office, contrasting sharply against minimalist walls or paired with contemporary seating.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery such as dovetail joints in the drawers, traditional timber shrinkage, and genuine oxidisation on the metal hardware.

These desks were predominantly built using solid oak or oak veneers, supplemented by brass or bronze drawer pulls and occasionally leather writing surfaces.
