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

Edwardian writing tables, crafted around 1901 to 1910, frequently incorporate 18th-century revival elements such as serpentine fronts, tapered legs, and decorative spindle galleries, characterised by lighter proportions than preceding Victorian styles.

High-grade mahogany, walnut, and satinwood were primary timbers, frequently fitted with solid brass drop handles, cast ring pulls, and hand-cut dovetailed drawer joins.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-dovetailed drawer construction, original timber drawer linings, period-appropriate brass hardware, and accurate proportional shaping along the curved front rail.

Positioning the writing desk in a home office, bedroom alcove, or wide hallway allows it to function as a focal point when combined with modern task lighting and contemporary artwork.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and bright sunlight, dust with a dry lint-free cloth, and apply a natural beeswax polish annually along the direction of the timber grain.
