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

An 18th-century bureau is a writing cabinet featuring a sloping drop-down front that opens to reveal an interior fitted with small drawers and pigeonholes, situated above a chest of drawers.

These bureaus were traditionally constructed from timber such as oak, walnut, mahogany, or pine, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, brass hardware, and hand-planed drawer linings.

Authentic period bureaus typically display hand-cut dovetails, irregular backboards with hand-sawn marks, period-correct brass hardware, and natural timber shrinkage consistent with age.

A painted antique bureau functions as a focal statement piece in a hallway, home office, or living area, offering a compact workspace while adding historical texture alongside contemporary lighting.

Position the bureau away from direct radiators and prolonged sunlight to protect the painted finish, and dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth.
