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.
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.
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.

Victorian writing tables are typically characterised by dark polished hardwoods such as mahogany, hand-cut dovetail joinery, and functional storage drawers designed for correspondence or administrative work.

Craftsmen utilised dense mahogany or walnut, frequently incorporating inset leather writing surfaces, solid brass drawer handles, hand-cut joints, and brass castors for movement.

Authentic pieces display 19th-century construction details, including slightly irregular hand-cut dovetails, original brass ring or knob handles, carved or pierced trestle end supports, and period-correct castors.

Pair the table with a simple contemporary chair in a dedicated study area, or position it in a living space as a functional side table or compact workstation.

Dust the surface regularly using a soft lint-free cloth, apply a good quality beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain, and shield the item from direct sunlight and excess moisture.
