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.

A Victorian pedestal desk consists of a flat writing surface resting upon two vertical pedestals containing drawers, flanking a central kneehole for seating.

These desks were crafted using fine hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or oak, often accented with gilt-tooled leather writing inserts and brass hardware.

Authentic examples feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, original brass handles, ceramic or brass castors beneath the pedestals, and historical patination.

Position the desk centrally in a dedicated home office or study, pairing the rich timber with contemporary lighting or a minimalist task chair to create visual contrast.

Apply clear beeswax polish sparingly to the walnut framework to preserve the timber finish, and clean the leather surface with a specialized leather conditioner to prevent drying.
