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

A Victorian campaign pedestal desk is a modular writing table designed primarily for military officers and travellers, featuring a three-part construction comprising two pedestals and a removable top surface fitted with recessed brass hardware.

These desks were typically constructed from durable hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or teak, fitted with flush brass corner brackets and drop handles, and topped with a leather writing insert.

Authentic pieces feature recessed brass flush handles and brass corner straps designed to prevent snagging during transport, along with modular sections held together by pins or structural alignment fittings.

A campaign desk serves as a focal point in a modern home office, paired with contemporary task lighting and minimal decorative accents to highlight its utilitarian woodwork and brass fittings.

The timber should be treated regularly with natural beeswax, while the leather inset requires occasional conditioning with dedicated leather cream to prevent drying and cracking.
