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

Art Deco furniture emerged in the interwar period, characterised by streamlined geometric shapes, luxurious veneers like burr walnut or maple, and a synthesis of traditional craftsmanship with industrial modernity.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames finished with exotic wood veneers, dovetail jointed drawers, and sometimes leather or faux-leather writing inserts bordered by subtle blind tooling.

Authentic period pieces exhibit period-correct construction techniques such as hand-cut dovetailing, natural timber shrinkage, genuine patination on hardware, and historical veneer application methods.

Pairing a statement period desk with minimalist seating or placing it as a focal point in a home office allows the distinctive wood grain and architectural silhouette to anchor the room.

Maintain wooden surfaces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying appropriate natural beeswax to nourish the finish.
