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 kidney-shaped desk is defined by its smooth concave front curvature, designed to allow the user to sit closer to the working surface and reach surrounding drawers comfortably.

Victorian cabinetmakers primarily utilised solid mahogany and rich mahogany veneers, often accented with boxwood string inlay, gilt-tooled leather writing surfaces, and cast brass hardware.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-cut dovetail joints inside drawer linings, natural variation in wood grain, cast brass handles, original brass castors, and aged patination across timber and leather elements.

Position the desk as a floating central piece in a study or living area to showcase its curved back panel, paired with a modern upholstered desk chair and subtle brass table lamps.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish sparingly, while treating the leather insert with a specialized leather balsam to prevent cracking and maintain flexibility.
