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

Edwardian pedestal desks, produced between 1901 and 1910, are defined by two vertical columns of drawers supporting a flat writing surface, often incorporating classical Revival details and lighter proportions compared to earlier Victorian furniture.

These desks typically utilise solid mahogany, oak, or walnut timber, frequently featuring a gold-tooled leather writing surface known as a skiver, along with cast brass handles and brass castors.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut dovetailed drawer joints, period-correct brass hardware, natural timber oxidisation, and often feature stamped brass castors or maker marks inside the drawer linings.

Position the desk near a natural light source, paired with a contemporary desk chair or traditional leather armchair, balancing the dark timber tones against neutral walls and minimalist task lighting.

Apply high-grade beeswax periodically along the grain of the mahogany, position the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent timber movement, and treat the leather insert with specialised leather conditioner.
