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

Popularised during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, kidney-shaped desks feature a distinctive concave front curve designed to wrap around the user comfortably. These pieces frequently reflect Sheraton Revival influences, incorporating elegant stringing and refined proportions.

Craftsmen typically utilised high-grade flame mahogany, satinwood, or rosewood, often accented with boxwood stringing or crossbanding. Construction features of the era included brass castors, dovetail-jointed drawers, and secondary timbers like oak or pine for internal drawer linings.

Authentic Edwardian desks feature hand-cut dovetail joints, cast brass hardware, and subtle patination consistent with age. Look for evidence of hand-carved details or genuine wood veneers alongside period-correct brass castors and original lock mechanisms.

Position the desk centrally in a home office or near a window to showcase its fluid curved profile from all angles. Pair with a contemporary sculptural chair and a sleek brass task lamp to create a sophisticated blend of classic and modern aesthetics.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish along the wood grain twice yearly. Protect the timber surface from direct sunlight, central heating sources, and moisture using blotters or coasters.
