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

Originating in the early 20th century, Edwardian pedestal desks are freestanding writing tables featuring twin banks of drawers supporting a rectangular top, often combining clean classical proportions with rich walnut or mahogany veneers.

These desks are commonly constructed from hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or mahogany, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer boxes, cast brass drop-handles, and inlaid leather or cloth writing surfaces.

Authentic period pieces usually showcase hand-cut dovetail joints on drawer linings, natural surface patination, original hand-cast brass hardware, and timber drawer bottoms rather than modern plywood.

Position the desk as a focal point in a dedicated study, pairing it with a contemporary task lamp and modern ergonomic seating to create an eclectic workspace that balances heritage craftsmanship with functionality.

Keep the timber hydrated using a quality beeswax polish applied along the grain, protect the wooden surface from direct sunlight or heat sources, and treat leather insets with dedicated leather conditioner.
