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.

Edwardian Queen Anne style writing tables typically feature slender cabriole legs, carved shell or acanthus leaf knees, pad feet, and figured wood veneers such as burr walnut. Manufactured between 1901 and 1910, these pieces combined early 18th-century proportions with refined 20th-century craftsmanship.

These tables are constructed using a solid timber frame, often oak or beech, overlaid with highly decorative burr walnut veneers. The writing surface may feature inset leather with gilded tooling, complemented by cast brass drawer handles and key escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut or early machine dovetail joints in the drawers, natural age-related patination, and book-matched burr veneer patterns. Original brass hardware will show subtle surface oxidisation, and the underside of the frame will display unpolished timber with natural wear.

Position the table freestanding near a window bay or within a home library to showcase its fully finished back. Pair it with a modern desk chair or an upholstered side chair to create a functional workspace that balances historical detail with contemporary lines.

Maintain burr walnut by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the table away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent veneer cracking or finish fading.
