Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Louis XVI style writing tables are recognised by their geometric symmetry, straight tapered legs, classical proportions, and understated ornamental motifs such as foliate marquetry and gilded moulding.

Period walnut writing desks typically feature high-grade burr walnut veneers applied over solid timber cores, complemented by contrasting wood inlays such as boxwood or fruitwood, and cast brass accents.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces display hand-cut veneer layers, natural wood grain variation within the marquetry, historic shrinkage lines, and traditional drawer joinery such as hand-cut dovetails.

Position the table as a focal point in a home office, hallway, or living space, pairing it with clean-lined modern seating or contemporary artwork to create a balanced contrast between period craftsmanship and modern design.

Preserve the natural patina by keeping the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources, wiping dust with a soft microfibre cloth, and applying a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year.
