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 writing desks, produced between 1901 and 1910, often draw inspiration from 18th-century Sheraton and Hepplewhite designs. They typically feature lighter forms, refined boxwood or satinwood stringing, tapered legs, and functional superstructures with small drawers or galleries.

These desks were predominantly crafted using high-grade mahogany, often embellished with satinwood or boxwood marquetry and stringing. Writing surfaces frequently incorporated inset writing leather, supplemented by cast brass handles and decorative pierced galleries.

Authentic pieces generally display machine-assisted dovetail joints with subtle hand-finishing, delicate satinwood or ebony inlays, and stamped brass hardware. Look for original locks, authentic wear around the kneehole area, and smooth, patinated timber finishes.

An Edwardian desk functions well as a focal statement piece in a contemporary study, hallway, or living area. Pair it with a minimal modern desk lamp and a tailored upholstered chair to balance classical proportions with current design trends.

Dust regularly using a dry, soft microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year along the grain. Keep the timber away from direct heat sources or prolonged sunlight, and treat leather inserts with specialised leather conditioner.
