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

Popular during the mid-to-late 19th century, these writing tables feature burr walnut veneers cut from the burl of the tree, creating a highly figured grain pattern. They typically include frieze drawers, rounded corners, floral inlay or marquetry, and turned or carved supports on castors.

Victorian cabinetmakers frequently used solid mahogany or pine cores covered with high-quality burr walnut veneers. Decorative elements often incorporated boxwood or fruitwood marquetry, secured with hand-cut dovetail drawer joints and finished with French polish.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints inside the drawers, original brass or ceramic castors, and subtle natural shrinkage or fine crazing in the veneer finish over time. The undersides and drawer linings generally display unpolished secondary timbers such as pine or oak.

A Victorian writing table can function as a home office desk, a hallway console table, or a dressing table in a bedroom suite. Combining the warm timber tones with clean-lined contemporary artwork or a modern desk chair creates an effective contrast between historical craftsmanship and contemporary design.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry, soft cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the wood. Keep the table positioned away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent the veneers from lifting or drying out.
