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.

An extending book slide is a desktop rack featuring an adjustable sliding base and upright end supports, designed to hold a variable number of books neatly on a flat surface. Popular during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, they were frequently crafted as functional desk accessories and souvenir items.

Traditional book slides were constructed from dense hardwoods such as olive wood, mahogany, rosewood, or walnut. They typically feature brass or iron hinges alongside sliding tongue-and-groove wooden mechanisms.

Authentic pieces exhibit distinctive grain variation, natural knots, and surface patination from age. They frequently bear period-stamped or carved inscriptions identifying places of origin, such as Jerusalem, alongside original brass fittings.

Place the book slide on an office desk, sideboard, or console table to organize a curated selection of hardcover books, art catalogues, or notebooks, adding natural timber texture to the workspace.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent warping or cracking. Wipe gently with a dry, soft cloth and apply clear beeswax polish occasionally to preserve the wood finish.
