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.

A library writing table is a substantial flat-topped table designed for reading, writing, and administrative tasks, typically featuring integrated frieze drawers and crafted from fine hardwoods.

These tables are traditionally constructed from solid or veneered mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, turned wooden legs, and brass castors for ease of movement.

Authentic period pieces display age-appropriate signs of wear, hand-saw marks on drawer bottoms, historic lock mechanisms, and a natural aged patina on the timber surface.

A mahogany library table can serve as a functional home office desk or modern console, paired with contemporary lighting and structured seating to create a balanced contrast.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent shrinking or warping, clean regularly with a dry cloth, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually to protect the finish.
