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.

A writing slope is a portable wooden box featuring an angled interior writing surface that opens for storing stationery, inkwells, and pens. High-end 19th-century examples were constructed from exotic Coromandel wood, valued for its distinctive dark striping.

Victorian writing slopes were typically constructed from fine hardwoods such as Coromandel, mahogany, or rosewood, frequently reinforced with protective brass corners, brass strapwork, and interior leather or velvet writing surfaces.

Authentic 19th-century writing slopes feature hand-cut dovetail joints, period-appropriate brass fittings secured with slotted screws, genuine oxidisation on metalwork, and often secret spring-loaded compartments behind interior drawer dividers.

An antique writing slope can be displayed closed on an office desk, console table, or library bookshelf, serving as a structured decorative focal point that provides concealed storage for small items.

Maintain the wood surface by dusting with a soft dry cloth and applying high-grade beeswax polish occasionally to nourish the timber grain. Avoid abrasive chemical cleaners on brass components to preserve historical patina.
